Dan,

This is great advice and extremely timely! The “how to” listing is very helpful, too.

I plan to go through the checklist right now. I especially liked your idea on creating an excel spreadsheet – by memory is getting way too complicated.

Thanks!

Dan,

So I recently graduated last year and I’m still very in touch with the undergraduate community. There are so many students out there who don’t understand the value of creating their personal brand!

I think the difficulty is changing the undergraduate mindset. Blogs such as your are great, but the difficulty is getting students to read it. I’m assuming that most of your readers are from the blogging community and already understand personal branding.

I’m still thinking of a way to penetrate the student community. When you figure it out, please let me know

Awesome post. It is so important to remember that anything you say/do on any social network will be visible to the world.

Make a silly comment and that might be what your user name is associated with. Put a bad video on YouTube and that might be what you are remembered by. And so on and so forth…Definitely very important to join whatever network and also make sure you maintain your reputation once you actually become a member.

Thank you for commenting on my post. Also… do you really feel that college students haven’t caught up to high schools in social media? I’d agree that there are as many high schools students as college students on FB and Myspace, but I don’t believe that the average HS student understands or is more capable with the power of these tools.

Then again, as a college student, I may be a little biased…
