Trust Agents - Virtual Assistant Forums

A fellow web developer, who knew I am really into social media, told me I needed to look up a guy name Chris Brogan. Ever heard of him? He is a social media educator who is paving the way for social media in business. I am finishing up his book called "Trust Agents" and have caught a few of his blog posts from http://www.chrisbrogan.com/. And I must say that so far, I am very impressed by his strategies. Does anyone else have an opinion of his methods or been to any of his conferences? If so, let me know your thoughts. Like I said, I am just now reading more into social media experts like Chris. If you know of any other remarkable social media innovators, please share. Thanks all!

Chris is fantastic. If you're not getting his newsletter yet you're really missing out on something. It's very personal and I've not only gotten great tips from it, but have corresponded with Chris a few times. He's a truly open and helpful guy.

Good timing - We're going to be posting a review of Chris' book Trust Agents on the boards in the not-too-distant future as well as interviewing him for our new Leading Edge Interview Series... just FYI!

That's great! I am definitely going to keep my eye out for that. If you need any input for the review let me know!

I have been following his blog for awhile and was able to attend a webinar that Chris hosted and he is fantastic! He really is the real deal. Sign up for his newsletter too and you will not be disappointed (the topics hardly ever overlap-which is quite a feat to pull off!). I also enjoy Brian Solis, Mike Michalowicz, Guy Kawasaki and Ann Handley. There are so many great writers out there on social media but these are some of my favorites.
