<p><span style="font-weight:bold;">Client/s Using Social Media to Enhance Campaign/Brand:<br /></span>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.burson-marsteller.com/Innovation_and_insights/Case_Studies/Lists/CaseStudies/DispForm.aspx?ID=6&amp;nodename=Case%20Studies&amp;subTitle=SAP%20China"><span style="font-style:italic;">SAP China</span></a>: implemented a community blog in which people could maintain individual blogs on SOA topics.</li>
<li><a href="http://www.burson-marsteller.com/Innovation_and_insights/Case_Studies/Lists/CaseStudies/DispForm.aspx?ID=65&amp;nodeName=Case%20Studies,2&amp;subTitle=Transforming%20Chichen-Itza%20from%20Virtual%20Wonder%20In%20Second%20Life%20to%20World%20Wonder">Transforming Chichen-Itza from Virtual Wonder In Second Life to World Wonder</a>: Targeted Second Life residents to communicate to target audiences the wonders and history of Chichen-Itza in a way that would generate votes, drive traffic and awareness from travel/lifestyle media.</li>
</ul>
<p> <span style="font-weight:bold;">Other Cool Social Media/Digital Assets from Burson-Marsteller:</span>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.burson-marsteller.com/Practices_And_Specialties/Digital_Media/Pages/CaseStudies.aspx">Separate Burson Digital Practice</a> (where most of the social media links are hosted) Burson Digital is described as developing &#8220;communications strategies around social media/community, online reputation management, interactive experience design, digital business management, and mobile marketing on behalf of corporations, consumer brands, government agencies and other large organizations.&#8221;</li>
<li><a href="http://www.digitalperspectiveblog.com/">Digital Perspectives Blog.</a></li>
<li>Separate Twitter: <a href="http://twitter.com/BMdigital">@BMDigital  </a>(*Note the account is private and blocking updates and seems to be empty)**EDITORS UPDATE- Burson responded on Twitter. The new account is @<a href="http://twitter.com/bursondigital">BursonDigital</a>.</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight:bold;">Summary: </span>It&#8217;s mostly there. Burson has the basics in place with all of the major networks covered and they have good content filling it up. (Although-what is up with the @BMDigital Twitter?) While they don&#8217;t have a digital front man like Edelman does, they encourage a full   digital team to lead the way in the social media space. In looking at the case studies, I was hoping for more recent work, but who knows the reasoning for why those case studies (some back to 2007) are featured. They&#8217;re still good but I&#8217;m guessing Burson has done some killer stuff since then. I really like the Digital Perspectives Blog (may also be the fact that I follow <a href="http://twitter.com/daveambrose">Dave Ambrose&#8217;s</a> work as well.)</p>
