Gotta Get Item of the Week: Tangible Social Media Tools

First there was online MLS, then virtual tours and now social media. Sometimes the more things change the more they stay the same. Although today’s gotta get item of the week may not be a game-changer, it is an enticing, fun and even potentially profitable undertaking….tangible social media tools.

Tangible Social Media Defined

Tangible social media may not be a term you have heard before but that is only because it is so new. Basically these tools (more on that in a minute) allow consumers or social media site owners to create customized books, comics, memoirs, portrait books and other printed versions of online interactions to be used as keepsakes or future reference.

Cool Tools

Create a Facebook page for seminars, online events or specialized information then turn it into a commodity to give away later.

Printing Facebook – This creative an unique service allows you to create posters ($20 each) filled with all your Facebook friends.

Freeze your internet activity in a space and time by creating a book that compiles all the interaction, images and even status updates on your account. A great tool for information heavy users or those seeking to capitalize on an especially interesting theme.

Custom Twitter Books – This could be one of the best $20 you spend in a long time (and don’t forget those tax deductions); customized Twitter books that preserve all your best Tweets in a printed version. Include or omit tweets as desired, then put them all together to preserve those words of wisdom (or downright foolishness…your pick). As an added benefit, real estate and investment pro’s will become more aware of the value of information when including a tweet with an eye for posterity. Great give-away or gift idea as well.

FledglingWine.com – Think of this as social media on ice. In an effort to encourage literacy, a wine enthusiast has created what may be one of the most creative uses of Twitter to come about; Twitter wine. At $20 per bottle, you can customize the Twitter label in a choice of Chardonnay or Pino Noir. Right in time for the holiday celebrations, it’s a fun twist on an old tradition.
