Increasingly, yes. More than half (52.1 percent) of firms now let all of their employees access social media sites at work, with only a little more than one quarter (26.4 percent) actively blocking access to these channels. And while almost two-thirds (64.2 percent) don’t monitor the use of Twitter and Facebook in the office, 68.9 percent do have a social media policy in place.

Which CEO has the most influence when it comes to social media? Warren Buffett? Nope. Michael Dell? Not a bad guess, I suppose. Twitter’s Dick Costolo? He’s up there. AOL’s Steve Case? Good try. Richard Branson? You’re getting warmer. Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg? According to this study, he doesn’t even make the top fifty. Yes indeed. According to the Reuters & Klout 50, which measures the most influential executives online, it’s Oprah Winfrey who ranks as the most influential social CEO, ahead of Rupert Murdoch, Richard Branson, Mark Cuban and Tim O’Reilly. Twitter co-founder (and now Square CEO) Jack Dorsey placed in fifth, while Twitter CEO Dick Costolo was fourteenth. Check out the incredibly well-designed infographic below for your top forty....

This post is #6 in DailyTekk’s famous Top 100 series which explores the best startups, gadgets, apps, websites and services in a given category.... I love a good infographic! After all, knowledge is power and the visualization of data makes absorbing information all the easier. Well-designed infographics have a way of pulling me into a subject I’d normally never care to know about. As a designer I can attest to the crazy amount of time it takes to make a compelling, useful infographic. I have to say I knew about many of the great links, resources and tools I’ve linked to here on this post before but I dug deep and found some new and exciting infographic tools that I’m willing to bet you haven’t seen before. Items 1-5 under the Data Visualization Tools and Software category are sufficiently capable of arming even a novice designer with the ability to produce a powerful infographic (though I’m sure experts will find them handy as well). In short, if you love infographics, data visualization and information design as much as I do, you’re going to love this post....

What could the problem be? And, more important, how can we be sure that our business won't fail online? This article looks to answer those questions by offering a few quick-and-dirty methods for gauging your online marketing strengths and weaknesses....
In honor of Pi Day (3/14) we took a dive into our library to suss out some Pie Knowledge, and ended up with the above appetizing infographic revealing the flavor breakdown of the 85,748 “pie” search results from our library. Yes, we know that “Pi” equals 3.14159… and not “Pie,” but we couldn’t resist the delicious comparison.

Domino’s faced a major crisis in 2009 after two employees defiled their pizza on YouTube, but it only took the company three and a half weeks to restore a 22 percent drop in online sentiment, according to social media monitoring service SDL. How did they do it? Domino’s president Patrick Doyle put up his own YouTube video, in which he explained that the rogue employees were not only fired, but also faced criminal charges. YouTube commenters responded with the usual sarcasm, but addressing the problem on the same platform where it started helped contain it. United Airlines and Nestlé, which also faced backlash after a fail, were not so lucky. Below is a comparison of how the three companies’ responses to criticism from the public either reduced or increased the amount negative things people said about them online....
