ComMetrics weekly review: Xing to Picasso via MoMA

Every week we tweet about a lot of fascinating stuff, highlighting great content that is of interest to social media folks and corporate bloggers. The best way to keep track is by simply following us on Twitter. If you already follow too many people to keep track of, however, this weekly compilation provides you with our top tweets for the previous seven days.

Our top stories include how Barcelona’s Picasso Museum and the Museum of Modern Art are blazing the social media trail, a great Webinar you’ll definitely want to fit into your schedule, why Google’s Dashboard is not alleviating the European Commission’s concerns about user privacy, and why cloud computing means trouble for Amazon, Microsoft and YOU. Plus, check out some free Twitter tools, to better manage your brand on social networks.
