here’s a video of me during a press interview in london.

and here is an interview on celebrity scraps talking about my dog and making greg join twitter.

this one is a little different than the heroes ones - it’s all about the use of social media by actors (and other stuff). hope you like it.

also chris brogan is an amazing online media person. he gives great advice if you have an online business or other such adventures.

also - an interview with me in german.

very soon - i will post photos from the uk (particularly of the fans - thanks for posing for me!).

I know what you’re thinking: who is this Laura person we don’t care about and what is she doing on Brea’s blog?  WE WANT BREA!

Who am I? My company helps people like Brea keep their online empires happily humming along. I do things like explain the weird intricacies and etiquette of twitter and make sure that her facebook and blog are linked up. When something breaks I fix it, and when something is confusing I explain it. You can catch me on twitter as @lkr.

As for why I’m on her blog, Brea ask me to do a guest Brea List while she’s away in London. I thought I would theme my list around my favorite web resources, and give you a little sneak peak behind the scenes of the Brea Grant Web Empire.™

Twitterrific (for brea) & TwitterBerry (for me): When you spend all day running around (bad unintentional pun) like Brea, a phone app for tweeting is a must-have. Who am I kidding, I spend EVERY day in front of a computer but TwitterBerry allows me to get my fix from the beach as well!

FeedSmith, CommentLuv and Twitter Widget: These are some of my favorite plugins, I use them on pretty much every project. Despite its frustrating, wildly fluctuating numbers, feedburner is essential for tracking the metrics of your blog. I think commentluv is a great way to encourage comments, and I love being able to give a little “reward” to commenters for taking the time to say hi. Twitter widget makes it dead-simple to embed your twitter feed into your blog which is great for driving traffic to your twitter account.

Yotify: Social media types know that what we call listening (basically looking out for mentions and media pertaining to the client) is probably the most important element of online strategy. For monitoring Brea, I’ve been playing around with a new site called Yotify. It can be annoying with all of the multiple set-ups, but it allows more targeted, in-depth searches than your standard google alert.

Gary Vaynerchuk: When Brea and I started discussing her jumping into the whole social media thing, I sent her a link to this Gary V speech. As you can guess, she was not only immediately sold on the power of all this stuff but totally fired up about the possibilities.

got such a great response, i filmed another one.

these guys do a funny (if sometimes a little crude) heroes podcast.

and they interview me live. you can find it here.

i’m going to be there! this weekend! here’s a link - londonexpo.com

i will be signing photos so come by and tell me you read my blog.

i just had to post this because it was so freakin funny. a literal video version of “take on me.”

here’s an interview with me on buddytv.com. and it has a bonus! if you love the sound of my voice, you can actually hear me ramble instead of just reading it.

are you on it?

someone sent me this link to celebs on twitter. kind of rad. who are you following? they don’t even list ben templesmith or brian wood.

mixing it up a bit this week for the brea list. instead of bands and books, it’s all about the internet. here’s are three of my favorite web series(es) - what’s the proper way to right that?

david wain’s wainy days.

that’s the first episode but you can see more here. one time i was at a party david wain was at and i was too nervous to say much of anything to him. but i like this web series. there it is.

i know everyone had seen felicia day’s series, the guild, but i just caught on post-dr. horrible. anyway, here is the first episode of the guild. more can be found at watchtheguild.com.

want more felicia day? her website is feliciaday.com. all her interviews are pretty funny too.

lastly, a web series i happen to be involved in. valley peaks - a dramatic mockery of teen shows.

that’s the first episode but if you keep watching, i make an appearance in episode 6.

gonna start a new thing for the brea list - guest list-ers! people who i think are rad and have interesting things/lists to share.
