Audio. I think the only thing that
does work is good video tutorials, that's really big at the moment, good
blogs and decent articles on authorative sites and in printed magazines.
I think you really want to expand your understanding of what social
media is. All of the above except printed magazines is part of it :)
Hello Alexandre,
You're right, I'm confusing social media and social networking services.
I meant the latter.
the other
things are imho not useful. Twitter, Facebook, Google+ won't work,
simply too much dispersion, people don't collaborate on these platforms,
they only click on buttons and leave pointless comments.
That's quite an exxageration.
I know. I've already replied to Rosea where that originates from. Next
time I'll keep the whole picture in mind :)
I do some techsupport for Inkscape, GIMP
and Scribus via Twitter. It's actually useful for
helping people solve
simple issues. That's not a direct marketing, but it helps preserving
user base. Of course, one could go beyond that.
I call BS, with the band I convinced the others
to ditch Cubase in favor of
Qtractor because every rehearsal session we were totally lost again on how
to record a simple track.
You mean you didn't know how to use Cubase? :)
Ha ha, yeah, that's true. We even borrowed a 300 page Cubase book from a
friend but still we didn't manage.
Best,
Jeremy
