Well, I’m pleased to report that airline KLM has launched @KLMFares and done exactly what I described and envisioned, with great results. If you tweet that specific handle + locations, they will return a link with ticket info for the airfare you seek, and the whole experience will take you seconds-t0-under a minute.

The Future of Twitter is Here Now!
I had a bittersweet moment tonight, though ultimately it’s a victory and I’m excited to see someone do it. Two years ago, I penned a long diatribe calling for automation on Twitter of an informational (not marketing) nature, and gave several examples of what I’d like to see happen in the future. That article is here if you have an hour (joking, sort of): https://freshid.com/2010/01/information-vs-engagement-are-you-giving-people-what-they-need

7 Habits of Highly Effective Twitterers
Originally posted February 2009 on the Mr. Tweet blog, this post has been modified slightly to reflect current information.I lived in Texas all my life until moving to Kansas 4 years ago to get married. As a designer and business owner who depends on rich relationships for personal and business prospects, I originally felt like a fish out of water in this strange new land. Twitter has been a critical component that changed everything for me, both in terms of finding and being found by relevant folks.
As opposed to gaming the system to gain followers, I believe in constant engagement and adding value to build up a meaningful network. It works!

Social Media in the News
You can tell that Social Media is now officially mainstream when you read the news. This week’s headlines include a Missouri state judge issuing an injunction against a teachers social networking prohibition law, social media use during natural disasters, and Britain political leaders meeting to brainstorm on how to use social media or limit others from using social media to curb civil unrest.
The Missouri story is of particular interest as my husband happens to be a Missouri teacher. With a 15-year old daughter who also happens to attend his school, we were very concerned with this new law (Senate Bill 54, section 162.069) going in to effect. There was a real possibility that he would no longer be able to be “friends” with his own child. Thankfully we have a pretty good kid, but I would be lying if I didn’t admit to keeping a watchful eye on her posts and interactions.

Fresh ID Out and About in KC
It’s been a busy, exciting and educational past few weeks at the Fresh ID offices. Our team has been in full force around KC, and working around the clock. At Fresh ID, we believe in sharing what we know and actively learning at all times. Recently, our very own CEO Lisa Qualls was featured in the Kansas City Business Journal talking about “Social Media Club of Kansas City”, and then Lisa and our CTO, Tom Jenkins both knocked it out of the park with their presentations at “WordCamp KC”.
Lisa (@lqualls4444) and our friend Joe Cox (@joenormal) were featured in the Kansas City Business Journal (KCBJ) for their involvement with Social Media Club Kansas City (@SMCKC). Joe, the current President, and Lisa, Chairwoman of the Board, talked about the growing membership and development of SMCKC and the cool information and social activities members are involved in. Lisa and Joe explained how businesses are reaching out and using social media and how this club is a place for business professionals to reach out and learn from each other. “None of us are social ninjas”, Cox said. “We’re all eager to learn from each other” (KCBJ).
