Facebook Timeline and the Art of Company Storytelling | KaneCo Conversations | Just Story It | Scoop.it

Facebook's Timeline is tailor-made to tell your company’s story — from its humble beginnings to the present – capturing every milestone, change and challenge so your clients or customers can see, at a glance, who you are and why you do what you do.

But ultimately, Timeline is just a tool. You still need to come up with the information, ideas and media with which to populate it and create a story that’s interesting and engaging for your community.

So what makes a good company story?


Here's a nifty post for those of you who have a Facebook business page and need to get ready for the switch-over to the Timeline format.  


It is a perfect opportunity to re-think how to use the Timeline to share your business stories.  This article gives us ideas and tips to get us started -- that includes great suggestions for the types of stories to share.  


Seems I've just added another item on my long to-do list!

‘The future of storytelling’ media mindset bias | Limor's Storytelling Agora

‘The future of storytelling’ media mindset bias | Limor's Storytelling Agora | Just Story It | Scoop.it
Any research project that comes up with a conclusion compacted into a couple of words all beginning with the same initial letter, instantly provokes in me the...


Ahhhh -- here's another great blog post about the nature of storytelling that teases out key distinctions between storytelling, technology, and media.


Today these 3 terms get lumped together in ways that are sometimes quite odd. Statements like, "with technology and media the very nature of storytelling is changing and evolving"  doesn't pass the smell test. Media and channels might be changing -- but storytelling itself?? Hmmm.


Here my colleague Limor Shiponi delves into a recent research report about the future of storytelling to show us the fallacies in the reports assumptions. And ask questions like, "What are we doing??!"


Now why should you care? Because no one wants to get sucked into hype that is creating distortions and false promises.


Oh, don't get me wrong -- I am just as excited about the future of storytelling in business as others. I just want to play with eyes wide open. Otherwise we'll all experience false starts, failures, and misdirection that will eat up time, money and effort. I'd rather be smarter going into a storytelling project than ending up disappointed!


So read this article and let me know what YOU think. It is not a very long article, but it is throught provoking.


What insight would you contribute to what Limor has begun? I look forward to hearing from you.
