I thought it might be useful to roundup any useful links / articles etc that I’ve seen on my travels around the web each week. Not exactly a groundbreaking idea (and one that we have borrowed from elsewhere) but hopefully you’ll find something worthwhile that you may have missed!

4.  Social Media Calendar: Concepts and Ideas Across Channels

As SSE’s marketeer, I’m always tools that will help our social media output.  This calendar is a useful way to plan how you are going to be delivering a message across a number of different channels.  Thanks to @charitychap for bringing it to my attention. http://bit.ly/ZM94ci
