Visible versus Deep Web Deep Web = 90% of all web traffic!
Visible versus Deep Web • “Take Action” • “Alerts” • “Campaigns” • point to future organizing targets
Visible versus Deep Web • Unions on Facebook • REMEMBER:Facebook is a “walled” site –search independent of Google • On a union or organizer’s page – Check “favorite pages” to find current campaigns
Unions on Twitter Nice place to lurk, even if you don’t “tweet” Tip: You can follow “twibes” (groups of twitter users – there is a twibe of union organizers) through an RSS feed!
Where do you show up? As you would expect, IBM “owns” their brand online (Wikipedia is potential exception). This blank space is a potential opportunity and threat
Where do you show up? IBM (surprisingly) is not doing anything to own the “IBM sucks” territory… but they should. Google obviously spots this as an opportunity for someone.
Stake Your Claim Look for sucks, exposed, report, kills, complaint to start. There are many others that would be specific to your brand Another opportunity for someone.
Google News alerts Tips: Use advanced search tips when setting up your alerts. Also have alerts delivered to an RSS reader (Google Reader is great) instead of your email.
Google Reader Biggest problem is creating a workflow where you can actually deal with the fire hose of data. RSS Reader can be a real time-saver. Tip: Create folders for different topics of interest and group alerts by topic.
