Emme Porter, Bruce Porter Jr owners of EmmeGirls LLC, DC Party Rentals, Social Networks Manager +1 202 436 5114
Bruce Porter Jr: Hi beautiful, what are we doing today?
Emme Porter: We’re doing the Networking Fools interview.
Emme Porter: Also what Bruce is doing, is buying this virtual real estate on the internet, and using it. So I think he would also like to promote his techniques with SEO and the Social Networks Manager™, which is really where his talent and passion is.
Bruce Porter Jr: ..and how it all integrates. You know we have the reality TV show, and of course we want the reality TV show to be a great hit, but realistically, if what we do it use it to brand our clients then it serves it’s purpose. So we want to use all these different methods of media in order to brand ourselves and our clients. Because keep in mind that the branding and publicity is very important to us, not only for getting new clients, but also getting new models. We have thousands of models on staff and it takes a lot of SEO to get them in here.
Here are some of the video highlights on the topic of social media marketing and search engine optimization from that interview +1 202 436 5114
Bruce Porter Jr: (speaking about Sports Buzz) ..for companies like them that have an android and Iphone app, marketing companies like us are very attractive. We not only staff the models for you, but we also promote you and get you in there on the first page of Google. If you Google “Sports Buzz Launch Event DC” of course you will see us, and the picture are filed and everything.
Emme Porter: He works tirelessly. How Bruce likes to describe the internet is that it’s alive, and so it’s a constant thing you have to work on all the time because it’s like a living breathing animal.
Bruce Porter Jr: SEO is one of those things that sometimes you’re really not sure why this happened or that happened. You just have to do so many things to get the results that you want. It’s a learning process. You know we’ve made mistakes too. Even a few months ago we made a big mistake and then you realize that is how that works and you have to work overtime to make up lost ground, but it is very effective… To go back to using the models, we take our models that are nationwide and do promotions, that is our business model. Then we use those models to promote ourselves and our clients. That is why when you Google us there are so many results and of course the name of the game is back links.
Emme Porter: Now that we have grown and are national company people use Google or Bing and they search for promotional models or trade show models and whoever is relevant is who the call first.
Bruce Porter Jr: As you know there is a huge difference if you appear on the first page of Google. It didn’t start off that way for us, there are a lot of companies out there who think they have the best promotional modelsor they are the best agency. People have been staffing models for years. It took a while to get there but we are now on the first page of Google for most of our key terms. That keeps the phone ringing and while word of mouth advertising is good, when large corporations hire promotional models, chances are they are going to hop on the internet and Google it, and call the first few people they see.

Social Media Management App Stroodle for Facebook Twitter Linkedin Review (Bruce Porter Jr 202 436 6577)
Social Networks Manager™ (Social Media Management 202 436 6577)
With mega sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Linkedin social networking has never been bigger. These websites are not only changing the way we communicate with each other, but also changing the way we live our lives. If you own a smartphone chances are your most used applications are going to be one of the three listed above.
But isn’t it kind of a hassle on your smartphone? I mean, on a computer you can open up multiple tabs to keep track of what’s going on within your internet life. On your smartphone it isn’t quite that easy. Even with background processing it can be a pain if you want to post one thing to all of your favorite social networking accounts. That is where the app “Stroodle” comes in.
Stroodle is an app developed by Frinzer that brings you the ability to connect your Facebook, Twitter, and Linkedin accounts all in one app. Gone are the days of multiple walls and feeds. Stroodle takes all three timelines and creates a universal timeline that indicates which social networking site it was posted from. Not only that but it goes the same for posting as well. You can post one single tweet or status update and it will automatically be sent to all 3. Don’t worry though, you have the ability when writing your post to determine if you want to only post it to specific ones.
So how is it you ask?

Stroodle delivers exactly what it promises… except it doesn’t quite live up to it’s true potential. Yes, you get a nice unified timeline. Yes, you can post from a single app. But something is just…wrong.
First and foremost the app is free. That’s a good thing right? Well honestly this time around it really isn’t. Firstly, be aware that you are going to have numerous ads all over your timeline (like the one pictured here). It even forces you to make your first post specifically about their app. That’s right, after you spend a few minutes connecting your social sites it actually forces you to make a post about THEM before you can actually go on and post something relevent.
It’s not like you can’t just go back and delete those ad posts, or pay $1 to go ad free, but it’s something that would’ve been nice to forgo altogether. The other thing Stroodle kind of missed on was profiles themselves. If you want to visit your profile or that of your friends you’ll have to exit Stroodle to go back into the native app of your social network of choice. While that doesn’t seem like that big of a deal, after a few days I was already tired of the extra work.
Lastly, the app is SLOOOOOOW. It comes as no surprise that the app would be slow since it’s gathering a ton of information from everywhere, but it’s REALLY slow.
Final Verdict:
Stroodle is a good app, but it’s just not a great app. While it delivers in some aspects I couldn’t help but want more out of it when using it. Frinzer took a step in the right direction but unless they improve what they started, someone will make a better app very soon. I can guarantee it.

Meet ‘Disco’, The Group Texting App Built Secretly Inside Google (Social Media Management 202 436 6577)
Disco, a new iPhone app and website
It seems like Google has made a foray into the group messaging space today with Disco, a new iPhone app and website. Well, they sort of have.
The service utilizes the Disco.com domain that Google bought at Domainfest last year for $255K. The Disco.com site went up today and the beta app hit the App Store yesterday, but no one noticed it — until now. And here’s the thing: it was made by Slide.
We’ve been testing the app here at TC HQ and thus far its pretty fast, perhaps because it’s initial build is more bare-bones than fellow group messaging contenders like Fast Society, Beluga and GroupMe. It’s actually pretty similar to the initial build of GroupMe before it added push notifications.
Again, the app is made by Slide, the storied social apps property which Google acquired in August for $182 million. Slide has made iPhone apps before, but the last one was Super Poke, an app created pre-Google acquisition. But Slide is being run as an autonomous business unit within Google, so this app is unrelated to any Google “Plus One” social projects, we hear.
We’ve reached out to Google for comment on the app and will update when we hear back.
How the app will fare competing in the already saturated group messaging space remains to be seen, and you read MG’s take on it here.
In the meantime here’s two fun facts: that’s Slide founder Max Levchin’s Facebook photo in the app screenshot (he’s the one on the bike) and the sample group on the Disco homepage is named GaGa Fan Club, interesting light of Lady Gaga’s recent Google visit.

Casual is the New Gaming (Alphanaut) Social Media Networks Manager
Read original article here
social gaming (Social Networks Manager 202 436 6577) image by MartijnReintjes
Electronic gaming since its inception, has always been considered somewhat of a niche market. Along with being niche, it also came with a stigma: the hardcore gamer was seen as someone who was filthy, unkempt, vulgar, and perpetually infantile. Since 2006, with the release of the Wii, gaming has begun to leave the hands of the hardcore gamer and started to create a new breed: the casual gamer. Someone who liked to game, but too much, as they had things to fit into their busy schedule.
This past weekend, Peter Vesterbacka, head developer at Finnish mobile gaming company Rovio and one of the head designers behind runaway hit Angry Birds, said at a South by Southwest panel that gaming on dedicated consoles is dying out, and that it will eventually be replaced by gaming on smartphones and tablets.
And there’s a grain of truth to that. With a reported one in three smartphone users being regular gamers, it’s obvious that more and more people are finding there way to mobile games, be it on their phones or tablets. What is the major difference? It cannot be simply for social connectivity, as games are built to exploit that (they are on phones) and there are even services such as OpenFeint which allow for cross-platform social interactivity. I believe it the major difference is the bite-sized nature of most mobile games. We as a generation already engage in ‘data snacking’, consuming information in tiny snippets on the go, so it’s logical that we would want other things in the same format. Although short, quickly ended or stoppable games have been popular on consoles (Wii game series Raving Rabbids being an example), the fact that they’re on one’s phone means that they are available whenever one has free time.
And if consoles aren’t dying, they are rapidly changing. Launched in June of 2010, OnLive is a cloud gaming service. Wherein traditional gaming consoles are standalone units that require constant replacing, cloud gaming keeps all of your gaming information on the internet. No longer does one have to worry about whether they have the latest machine, because as long as they can stream video (at 480p, 720p or 1080p, whichever they prefer), they will always be able to game, as all the actual computations are done on OnLive’s servers. In addition to the social aspects that are already present in different pay schemes, you can try a little before you fully commit, perfect for someone that wants to game snack, and sample all the latest games.
At the SXSW panel, Vesterbacka also notes how he’s tired of hearing the term “casual games”, because, as he puts it, there’s no such thing as “casual movies”, and I’m inclined to agree with him. While I still believe in the dichotomy between hardcore gamers and the non-hardcore, much like how the “social” in social media should be dropped, the “casual” should be dropped from casual games. While they were a niche, they have come to represent a growing majority in gaming, and it’s not likely to go away anytime soon.
