Not every Citi staff needs social media to perform their job

A while ago, soon after the news that Citi 'verified' its Twitter account, I sent a Tweet to Jamie Punishill, or @jpunishill for you Twitterers. 'How about a video interview or a 'Twitterview'?' Jamie was the face and name behind @AskCiti, which supports customer relations in the US. He was up for it. Schedules and questions went back and forth. &q...

Social media - the haters, the lovers and the real world

For the past few weeks I have been talking with a group of people at a large global bank about doing a Twitterview (it is scheduled, and will be publicised closer to the date, so keep your pants on). A lot of the talk was about bridging the gap between the gung-ho, Twitter-happy leader of the social media group and the corporate communications team...

Through wind, through snow, through volcanic ash...

Despite Iceland's attempts to derail Western Europe's economy yet again, this year's TradeTech event was surprisingly well attended. Word is about 75% of the delegates made it to the show-with some speakers managing to arrive via the magic of satellite video streaming. So, with volcanic ash and travel disruptions being no more than a conversation ...

When you bet the farm - go for the really big farm

Sources inside Thomson Reuters have said that Tom Glocer's plans for the massive market data, news, technology etc, etc, etc...vendor must proceed without failure or he (and by default everyone else) is toast. Remember, a few years ago when our sailboat-loving Tom made a sneaky play in Toronto - going over the head of Thomson Financial honcho Sharo...

From now on we will try to incorporate #finxlive into our live Tweets from events, to make it easier to watch the 140 character nuggets of news, comment, and gossip from Finextra's roving journos.
