Microsoft Tests Social Media Monitoring Product

,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft has developed a social media analytics tool 
| that's designed, among other things, to improve a marketing 
| organization's ability to adjust to social media phenomena 
| on the fly.
| 
| Called "Looking Glass," the product is still in prototype 
| and will only be available to a few companies in the near 
| term. It sends e-mail alerts when social media activity 
| picks up considerably. The sentiment (i.e., negative or 
| positive) of that chatter and the influence level of the 
| content creator are reported in the alert. Digital flow 
| charts show what days of the week generate the most 
| activity on Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, YouTube, and other 
| social media sites.

Microsoft Wants to Help Marketers Manage Messy Social Media

,----[ Quote ]
| Today Microsoft is taking the wraps off a new platform 
| called Looking Glass, a social-media aggregator and 
| monitoring tool that's still in "proof of concept" stage, 
| meaning it's not yet in the market and will be open to a 
| very small group of testers next month.

| In 2001, the Los Angeles Times accused Microsoft of astroturfing
| when hundreds of similar letters were sent to newspapers voicing
| disagreement with the United States Department of Justice and its
| antitrust suit against Microsoft. The letters, prepared by Americans
| for Technology Leadership, had in some cases been mailed from
| deceased citizens or nonexistent addresses.
