This is a recently established directory (as of May 2011) and is still a bit thin in content but I am sure it will fill out substantially with time. It also provides directories of conferences, webinars and tweetups. Other Useful Resources TweetDeck - TweetDeck is my favourite free social media browser for staying in touch with what’s happening across Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, and LinkedIn, etc. There are many other similar tools like this to pick from but I think Tweetdeck has the best interface for rapid, effective monitoring of social media. . i Marketmesuite - Marketmesuite is a Social Media Marketing Dashboard For Small Businesses. It costs about $35 a year but it is well worth it if you are using social media as part of your business marketing strategy.
