Crossing the borders through social networking Alessandra Celletti, a musician who has crossed the Italian borders Last week-end I accidentally followed an interview with Alessandra Celletti, a talented musician who managed to broaden her horizons thanks to internet. MySpace allowed her to meet a few people who turned to be key contacts for her and her music. I find her story inspiring because it witnesses the power and the hidden capital of digital networking. It also implies that good content still needs to me branded and promoted through the right channels. Furthermore I would like sharing her music which is original, inspiring, refreshing, pure and profound. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwQdc_OFQeE&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qn2k7LoKbjE&feature=player_embedded# Fiorenza

Hai condiviso una lunga parte della nostra vita…Alla soglia dei 90, al matrimonio di Katia ancora gioivi delle barzellette e della buona cucina.. Determinata, coerente, impavida, combattiva, onesta, coraggiosa. Cosi’ ti ricordiamo, donna rossa, comandante rispettata, temuta da molti.

Ti ringrazio come nipote e come donna. “Ricordati di essere come una pianta di bambu’ che si piega sino a terra ma non si rompe mai » « Non piangere mai per un uomo…L’uomo viene dalla porta, i figli vengono dal cuore » « Non essere ...

August 7, 2009 CinemaExpo 2009 _ REPORT June 22 Impressions: It was strange to walk to the RAI not to attend IBC but to get my badge for CinemaExpo, a smaller event. Strangely enough no cloakroom had been set up. Nobody was available for giving directions. Eventually I thought that the event might be close to the auditorium. That was a good guess. At the reception I picked up my badge and only later did I hear what an honour I was given to be part of a crew of 20 (world-wide) press representatives.

She was approached in 2008 about promoting their film, Flight 666. The agency reckoned that they would have to target their campaign to a niche market. They started consumer blogging.

A website on its own, with only sales pitch or offers will lead nowhere. When starting with internet marketing you need to realize that opening a blog or website is similar to having a store without the heavy overhead costs. Starting with Internet is the same as opening a store in a remote location far away from the center, f...
