The reviews are out and the critics are raving, Episode 56 of the Social Blade Show was one of our best shows to date! Before getting into some heated discussions over the new digg and why certain things were good and certain things were bad we touched on a new social media tool called Social Flow that will find out exactly when you should tweet and even what you should tweet and also we talked about Facebook’s new Stalker mode. The whole show is a winner but this is one digg debate you don’t want to miss!
Full Show:

But now that traffic is moving toward social networks like Twitter and Facebook, will a new field of “social media optimization” evolve? SocialFlow demonstrates “yes.”
Here SocialFlow cofounder Frank Speiser explains how it works and what it does.
