Grateful Dead Invented Social Media
Hiya. YouTube Orbit back in action, and almost 1/4 done! May, June and July. Talking about David M. Scott’s and Hubspot Brian Halligan’s new book “Marketing Lessons from the Grateful Dead: What Every Business Can Learn from the Most Iconic Band in History.” If you grew up listening to the dead (or were a “dead head”) than it’s interesting to think that Jerry Garcia and the community around him was, in fact, some of the early social media! Check out the book- David M. Scott was a big reason I’m being published soon with “Beyond Viral,” and he’s been an awesome mentor:

Don’t forget to make some video for “Life in a Day” tomorrow (Saturday, July 24, 2010)! Be sure it’s suitably depressing and upsetting for Sundance. Tee hee. Here’s my gratis promo for the initiative featuring waffle bear:

Oh and here’s Wheelchair Gorilla in the Library. Not very popular but man it was fun:
