 | In Lon Safko PBS Television Special, Lon will show you why Facebook is a valuable communication tool, how to use Twitter to reach your prospects, and why LinkedIn is so important in today’s professional business world. But, do you know what your customers are telling other people about you and your services, what you competition is saying, and what they all are saying about you? Do you know why having your web page mobile compatible on all mobile platforms is critical, what the SEO implications of blogging are, and why a QR Barcode on the back of your business card will help you track how effective your communication is. Do you know how and why leveraging email is the most cost effective form of communication you can do with as high as a 35% conversion rate? Do you completely understand that Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn are not strategies? The biggest problem with social media today, is that most people just don’t know what they don’t know. | ||||||

 | This Is What Comes After Social MediaIt’s Fusion Marketing… As many of you know, I am the author of the bestselling book, The Social Media Bible, and my newest bestseller is called The Fusion Marketing Bible. Fusion Marketing is about “What’s next”, it’s what comes after social media. Fusion Marketing is actually an entirely new form of marketing. |
Hi Lon,
I did not save it, but all the early research info on the ARPAnet was digitally archived. It came to light when one of the old programmer & researcher from SRI wrote an article on “unsung hero of the InterNet”, for PC WORLD magazine.
Some one who I was working with came into work with the article and started asking me about it and my role in this event. Then the gig was up ! ! !
I have not been successful in reaching any of the recipients of that first e-spam, except Vint Cerf (co-inventor of the Internet), but I have talked to may who had heard about it.
Here is the very first Spam message ever sent, below.
Gary
