Over the past few weeks, I have been highlighting some of the tools that can loosely be described as social media. The tools can be of use to a project manager in a variety of ways. Some of them can be directly used to help manage your projects, some of them to help you learn and develop, and some of them can be used for both.

As the series has gone on, my use of some of these technologies has also increased, as I have started to find them more and more useful. Of particular note to me are Twitter and FriendFeed, both of which I have found exceptionally useful. These two tools have helped me become more involved in the online project management community, both by seeing what others are doing, and by trying to contribute!

My resolutions moving forward are to continue to play a part in the project management community, most especially through Twitter and the Project Management Guide FriendFeed Room. I will also continue to search for new ways and new tools of social media to use in project management.

What about you? Which of the tools have you found most useful, or most interesting? What are you going to do to use social media in project management? Or are you going to steer well clear? Let me know your views!
