Should you moderate comments on your blog, YouTube page or Facebook Timeline? One example shows how a little moderation can go a long way…
On today’s Morning Media Menu podcast, Social Times staff writer Devon Glenn (pictured) explained how a YouTube user named Rob changed the hostile mood of commenters on his site by turning on the ‘Approve Comments’ feature.
Check it out: “At the time, Rob was enrolled in a graduate program for social research. He decided to use ‘Bird Face’ to conduct a social experiment of his own. First, he removed many of the negative comments about the video. Then he turned on the ‘approve comments’ filter to keep the flame wars under control. ‘People tend to go with whatever the vibe is,’ Rob said, and he noticed that the first few comments effectively set the tone for the rest. Now viewers concede that ‘the effect is pretty cool.’”

Goodreads has created a dystopian fiction inforgraphic, mapping the popularity and variety of books published in this bleak genre. We’ve embedded part of the chart above, but you can follow this link to see the information-packed image.
The inforgraphic explores books about characters living with repressive governments, a genre that covers everything from The Hunger Games to 1984. Wikipedia has a handy primer and list that can help you find more books.
Check it out: “Dystopian fiction is more popular than it has been in more than 50 years. Whether it’s the result of political turmoil, global financial crises, or other anxieties, readers are craving books about ruthless governments and terrifying worlds. The new breed of dystopian novels combines classic dystopian themes of cruel governments and violent, restrictive worlds with a few new twists—badass heroines and romance.”

Speculative fiction writer Michael R. Underwood has inked a book deal with Simon and Schuster Pocket Books this week, the second deal that began in Penguin’s Book Country writing community.
Nelson Literary agent Sara Megibow negotiated the two-book deal with Pocket Star editor Adam Wilson. You can read Underwood’s work at this Book Country link.
Underwood wrote about the experience on his blog: “Back at the end of January, Adam Wilson, of Pocket Books, sent me an email saying he’d read an excerpt of Geekomancy on Book Country and saw from my blog that I had a completed draft, so could he see it? At that point, I was reminded of Ghostbusters. If someone asks if you’re a god, you say yes. If an editor asks to see your manuscript, you say yes. There may be actually reasons to say no to an editor, but I didn’t have any good ones. I sent the manuscript along with a note that I was still in revisions and could send a more polished version later, if he preferred. Adam said he’d read the as-is version, and in a little over a week, he wrote back and wanted to schedule a phone call.” (pictured, via)

How strong is your social media resume? In a long New York Times feature about job hunting in the 21st Century, professionals urged job seekers to master social networks.
Check it out: “For midcareer executives, particularly in the media and related industries, knowing how to use Twitter, update your timeline on Facebook, pin on Pinterest, check in on Foursquare and upload images on Instagram are among the digital skills that some employers expect people to have to land a job or to flourish in a current role.”
The article used Mediabistro’s Social Media Marketing Boot Camp as a quick way to master these skills. This GalleyCat editor has taught in these online courses and our free Writer Resources section always contains plenty of social network advice.

Web strategist Adam Rotman built a simple and free tool called Pin A Quote that will let you turn your favorite quote on the web into a Pinterest post.
The tool captures both the quote and the original URL of the quote–a great way to share your favorite book, site or author page. Below, we’ve embedded a sample screen-shot of a quote.
Our sibling blog Social Times explained how it works: “Head over to pinaquote.com and drag the ‘Pin A Quote’ bookmarklet to your bookmarks bar. Once it’s there, you can highlight text on any website and then click the bookmarklet button to pin it. Pin A Quote creates an image from the text and you can share it on any of your Pinterest boards and send it to Twitter or Facebook.” (Via Kathleen Schmidt)

Pinterest, a new social networking site that lets users create virtual “pinboards” by pinning images of their favorite things, has some terms of use that writers should not ignore.
Over at Boston Business Journal, web editor Galen Moore took down his publication’s Pinterest page, worried after he discovered that “Pinterest’s service agreement gives it the right to sell images that users upload.”
According to the site’s terms of use, users are giving up the copyright of any materials that they share on the site. The terms of service explains: “By making available any Member Content through the Site, Application or Services, you hereby grant to Cold Brew Labs a worldwide, irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, to use, copy, adapt, modify, distribute, license, sell, transfer, publicly display, publicly perform, transmit, stream, broadcast, access, view, and otherwise exploit such Member Content only on, through or by means of the Site, Application or Services.” continued…

Starting next month, the online writing community Figment will manage HarperCollins’ Inkpop writing community in a new partnership.
Here’s more from the release: “Figment will assume control of all inkpop activity and operations … In addition, HarperCollins will join the many other publishers currently marketing their titles on Figment by signing a multiyear marketing partnership with the site, which will include opportunities for members to publish the creative work they submit to Figment.”
Both writing communities are aimed at teenage writers and readers. HarperCollins opened Inkpop in 2009 and Figment launched in 2010. HarperCollins Children’s Books president Susan Katz explained the move: “We approached Figment because we’ve admired what they are doing in the digital space. Together we can broaden our marketing reach for our authors and their stories by tapping into this highly engaged group.”

While his friend Nachu Bhatnagar battled terminal cancer, Reddit user Kivakid turned to the online community to help make his friend’s wish come true: to find out how Harry Turtledove’s book series The War That Came Early will end.
Through the magic of Reddit, an editor in the Reddit community gave this reader a gift he will never forget. You can watch Bhatnagar receive his gift in the video embedded above–the moving video contains a bit of NSFW language.
Here’s more from Social Times: “While the concluding books in the series won’t be out for a few years, the publisher sent an advanced copy of the latest book in the series and Harry Turtledove even agreed to speak on the phone with Nachu about the rest of the series. This amazingly heartwarming story wouldn’t have been possible without Reddit.”

Goodreads will end its Bookswap service on October 31st. The literary social network will devote its resources to helping people discover and recommend books while “improving other features, such as cataloging, groups, recommendations, and more.”
Here’s more from the site: “Over the next few weeks, you’ll see several changes relating to Goodreads Bookswap as we gradually remove it from the site. The basic functionality will remain active until October 31. If you have unspent swap credits, you must use them before this date. Also, effective immediately, we will no longer be issuing new book credits for books shipped. Since we know that many of you love to swap and will continue to do so, we’d like to encourage you to add your favorite swap site as a book link on your account. Most popular swap sites are already options, and all you’ll have to do is click “add” as it appears next to the link. Additionally, you can now log into the popular site Bookcrossing with your Goodreads account.”

A visibly deep pleasure is embraced by cell phone talkers. For tens of millions of Americans, there is almost nothing that can compare to the ringing ecstasy of a message. It also seems that nothing can bring down a deeper sense of despair than the palpable suffering of cellular silence. Perhaps half of the American adult population is literally addicted to cell phones. For them, a cell, now also offering access to an expanding host of related social networks, offers much more than suitable business contact
Well, as you may have heard today, yesterday’s major Facebook changes are nothing compared to what’s coming down the pike in a few weeks. I’m too wiped to recap it now, but I watched the whole hour+ f8 video with Mark Zuckerberg’s big announcement, and WOW. I live-blogged my notes on it as I listened in a series of public Facebook posts. If you don’t have FB but your kids do, you’ll want to know about the new developments. Lots of privacy issues to be aware of!
The Zuckerberg video, explaining the new evolution of the Facebook profile: the Timeline.
My notes:
• He says FB sees your profile page as “what you’d show someone in the first conversation you have with them.” Well, that’s a key difference in understanding right there, isn’t it? I’ve never seen my FB profile that way—profile in this context means your wall, your info page, your photos. My understanding of a Facebook wall, and I think I’m not alone in this, is where you share things for people you know, people you’ve allowed access into a more personal side of your life. When I meet a stranger, I don’t immediately launch into a personal narrative or pull out my wedding album…
• Zuckerberg on the original FB profile (one photo, basic info, school, work, relationship): “People loved this product…It was the first place that most people had on the internet where you felt safe expressing your real self.”
• Timeline is an interesting concept—it does address the problem of old status updates disappearing into the ether—but he keeps emphasizing how for previous years/months, Timeline pulls only “the most important events” of your life. So…it’s another case of FB determining what “important” means—just as they’ve been determining which friends appear more often in our news feeds.
The rest of my notes are in this long (public) thread on Facebook. It’s way too long to copy here. 
I’ll skip the rant about the obnoxious new FB profile overhaul and cut straight to the privacy info, since that’s important:
1) Be aware that your Facebook posting default is no longer really a default. If your default setting lo these many months has been “Friends” (meaning only FB friends will see your status updates) but you occasionally post an update to a different audience, like Public or Friends of Friends, well, now whatever you’ve changed it to for that one post is the new default.
See this official Facebook post for more on that. Key sentence: “When you change the audience, it remains selected for future posts until you change it again.”
2) OK, the new ticker thing is driving people nuts, and there are browser extensions to get rid of it if you wish. Here’s one for Chrome.
But even if you get rid of it—or maybe you love the thing and want to keep it!—there’s something important to know about what people see in that ticker. The privacy setting for each ticker item (post AND comments) is determined by the original poster. Which makes sense.
But say you leave a comment on your friend Jack’s latest update. If Jack chose the “Friends of Friends” settings for that update, and I’m your friend, I will see your comment in my ticker. I can hover over your comment and see Jack’s original post, and all the other comments people made on that post, whether they’re my friends or not.
Fine, it’s Jack’s post, he gets to decide who sees it. But you should know that if you comment on that post, all Jack’s friends (and he has a LOT) and all their friends can see your comment.
Thing is, this is actually nothing new. That was always the case with people who share with “friends of friends.” But before, in order to see your comment, I’d have to have noticed on your wall that you’d commented on this guy Jack’s post, and to see it I’d have to click through to Jack’s page. Which I wasn’t doing, because if I wanted to read Jack’s Facebook page I’d just plain friend him.
The difference now is that the ticker puts your comment (and by extension, the whole spicy discussion on Jack’s page!) right in front of all your FB friends in an eyecatching manner.
So if you’re commenting, be aware that other people might be looking.
3) How to know who is seeing your comments on other people’s posts:
In your ticker, hover over the comment and you’ll see the whole post & all its comments. Look for the blue “Like Comment Share” line and hover over the gray gear icon or people’s heads icon. A popup will show you who can see this post and all its comments, including yours. Now you know. Knowing is good, I always think.
There’s lots more privacy tweaking to be done, but these are the big new things to watch out for.
Want to get your book project funded through social connections, but haven’t quite found your audience through Kickstarter? Try Pubslush, a new social networking site for readers and writers.
eBookNewser has more: “It works is like a combination of free sample chapters and Kickstarter for books — readers can sample a chapter of a book and if they want to purchase it, they can ‘fund’ the project. The project only gets published, if it meets a minimum funding requirement (like Kickstarter, donors aren’t charged until the project is funded).”
Authors can participate by submitting ten pages and a summary of their book on the site. It’s a good idea to share the listing with your friends, but readers who already use the site can browse your work based on their reading preferences.

Marketing company Odyl — whose clients include the likes of Hachette Book Group, HarperCollins, Macmillan, Penguin Group, Random House, Simon & Schuster and Avon — has launched a new social marketing platform today for book marketers to promote their works on Facebook.
eBookNewser has more: “The platform lets you post excerpts from your books, music playlists and trailers among other things. It has a metrics tool, so you can track your readers. There is a poll and quiz tool and there is also a tool to give out promos like books and galleys. It also has a setting to let you import content from other places on the web, like Goodreads reviews Scribd docs, Twitter feeds, as well as YouTube and Flickr pages.”
The tool is designed for all kinds of bookmakers, from big publishing companies to self-published authors.

I used to tweet a lot on Twitter, but then I discovered everyone at work used Facebook, plus many others outside of work also liked Facebook. That being the case, I concentrated my efforts on Facebook and am still doing so. I like the idea of 5,000 friends instead of 2,000 followers. Some say if you get enough followers on Twitter who initiate the following, you can request more, but I've always been stopped at the 2,000 mark. I could go and unfollow some who don't follow me, but that takes up extra time.
I've heard Twitter is great for making book sales, and am thinking of going on there more, but there's only so much I can do each day promotionwise.
I also belong to:
Google Plus, which is still in its infancy, but shows promise
LinkedIn, though I barely use it, except to accept friend requests
MySpace, which seems to be more for the musically inclined
Some Ning Networks, including CrimeSpace
Live Journal
Bebo
AuthorsDen
Many Blogs, which loosely could be classified as social networks.
Tons of Egroups, and some other social networks I can't remember offhand.
What about you? Which social network do you spend the most time at, or don't you go to any of them?
By the way, my main Facebook address is http://facebook.com/morgan.mandel, if you wish to send a friend request. I can accept requests there, but can't generate any lately.

I prefer Twitter. It seems better for branding. Facebook becomes a time wasting black hole where you wade through messages about what people had for lunch and if they are ticked off at their spouse or kids. It's great to catch up with family and friends, but from a selling standpoint I feel it's the weaker of the two.

I used to be in love with Twitter. Then, for whatever reason got more into Facebook and absolutely love it there. It is a great place to network and keep up on what others are doing. I do have my posts automatically go to both Twitter and Facebook, so still use Twitter in that aspect.
Perhaps it is because I am a troglodyte but my favorite social network is the backyard barbeque. Not only can you see all the people there but if you are hurting, there is a strong possibility one of them will hold your hand when you most need it. And, if your most recent manuscript is accepted by Ballentine Books, you may even get a hug. And, at least you know for certain if someone is playing with himself or herself while he or she is talking to you. Try that with Nosebook or U-Space.
I've resisted Facebook, and while I've finally branched out to Google+ and Goodreads, I think those along with Twitter and blogging hits my limit. I spend several hours a day blogging and have build up some great friendships - and those friends continue to buy my book, even though I rarely mention it. So for me, blogging is best.
I mostly use Facebook to stay in touch with friends, and Twitter to market my books--though with what effectiveness I still don't know. I'm on Google+ but haven't used it much yet; it has obvious potential. As for email groups, I've been a member of the Internet Writing Workshop (http://internetwritingworkshop.org) for several years and have made some good friends there.
I used to be on Facebook but deleted everything. What a waste of time. It just gets you bogged down with people who aren't really your friends or interested in your book yakking about everything and nothing. I will never go back to Facebook.
I would love to try Twitter. My main thrust for social networks is for book sales and drawing attention to my books. I really don't care how many words an author wrote for the day or whether you broke up with a lover or are cooking chicken or meatloaf for dinner..
Oh my, I'm on so many that there are times I feel overwhelmed or leave sites neglected! The ones I use frequently though are Facebook, Google+ now, and Twitter. Thankfully, many link together or I've found an app to auto-tweet the same thing across the different platforms. Then all I have to do is remember to converse with people. I'm also on many other types of social networking sites that were created by individuals or professional organizations. I miss the days when there was only 2-3 platforms to network off! Now it's insane with the # of groups there are and I find that I'm still networking or connecting with many of the same people.
I use Facebook. I do use Twitter but not that often. I just don't see the response. Maybe I'm not using it correctly. I also like Goodreads. I've met some really great people there.
I use Facebook and am on several loops, but most days I'm too busy to check in with any of it...let alone the blogs I follow. There just aren't enough hours in the day when you work full time.
I've been on Twitter more than FB recently. It's faster and I can find mentions and retweets.

I avoided Facebook for the longest time. I figured I didn't need it, didn't have the time, and by the time I figured it out, the world would have moved on to something else. But I signed up to see if it was something I should let my son do, and now I'm hooked. I've reconnected with old friends from grade school and high school and it's been terrific. But you can sure kill a lot of time with it!
I actually find that my contacts start with Twitter and head over to Facebook. Twitter is great because of the speed. Everything is always happening.
I find myself stuck in the 2,000 rut like yourself (which I find annoying!)
There's something about Twitter I just like better, BUT when it comes to actual networking and conversation, I'll gladly take a following from Twitter and meet them on Facebook.
For example, this past weekend, I was on Twitter chatting a little with another thriller writer when we decided to head to Facebook to chat without limits. We talked for over an hour.

I find the chat feature on Facebook annoying, but like Jim mentioned, it can be useful. Usually, if I've somehow online for chat I get people interrupting me when I'm trying to post something. I'm always too much in a hurry to stick around and chat. I guess I'm a product of the modern age, though I'm a senior.

I'm addicted to Facebook. I reconnected with several family members I'd lost and have reconnected with old friends. I post whenever there is new book news. Love it!
I'm trying Twitter, but things move too fast. I've been on Facebook for a short while as well. However, I think I like Goodreads. I've even started a blog on it.
We'll see how that all goes.
Like many others here on this site, I am a goodreads girl. I love my goodreads account. I also blog. I'm on twitter and facebook, but I haven't found those two as useful. I link all of my accounts to my blog which is most useful in my case.
