Ah the irony. As a technical service provider we’re familiar to the archetypical image of the techie:

gruff
difficult to understand
enthusiastic about stuff that ordinary people couldn’t possibly care about

While we object to the stereotyping,  we contain ourselves to the technical aspects of the social media landscape, and leave the actual socialising to our clients.

Accordingly, we’re prototyping the next stage of  integration of our multilingual content management system for hotels with the major players: starting with Facebook and Twitter. It’s in development now, and you can help by ‘liking’ some of the content, and thereby helping us to test the components.

As an extra inducement, we will be offering a discount to people that help us test, so if your site content is compelling enough to make people want to share it, jump in and have a look at the demos.

The links to the demos are below:

Facebook Like Button. Nice and compact

Facebook  Like Box. Latest info from the facebook wall and a like button.

Facebook  Recent Activity. The history of all facebook activity on the site.

Facebook  Recommendations. A subset of facebook  recent activity.

Facebook Comment Box. Very early stages of testing

Twitter Box: Display latest tweets on own site webpage

Have fun!
