Saying hello

Welcome to SocialVoice, LiveWorld’s new social media home on the web.

SocialVoice is the place where we’ll share our views on the comings and goings of the social networking/online community/interactive marketing industry, as well as mix in stories about our personal interests and hobbies (in my case, that could very well mean trying to entertain you with a little Boston Red Sox talk!).

So, let me say hello. I’m Bryan Person, LiveWorld’s new social media evangelist. I’ve been blogging, podcasting, and otherwise jumping into online and face-to-face discussions about social media since 2005, and I’ll be doing plenty more of that right here in the coming weeks and months.

Some of what you can expect on this blog:

• Reporting and insights from events that I attend and speak at


• Interviews with newsmakers and influencers


• Audio and video podcasts


• Case studies and lessons learned from our own customer projects

Along the way, I’ll also be asking for your feedback. When you learn something new here, I encourage you to jump in with a comment. But when I’m all wet, make sure you tell me that, too.

Today, we put SocialVoice into overdrive. Thanks for coming along for the ride.
