What and When to Post
The following are some best practices for posting information on Cisco WebEx Social:
Post—Use a post to share text, videos, images, links, and files with people, groups, and 
communities. The post is a versatile tool that can be shared not only across multiple communities at 
the same time, but also with people who are not members of those communities. You can set the post 
permissions any way you want to allow or disallow people to view, comment, share, edit or even 
authorize permissions.
The Post is the recommended way of creating content in Cisco WebEx Social. By altering the 
permissions and the place where it is posted, the Post can be used as a Wiki, Blog, or Discussion.
Update—Use an update to quickly and easily update your followers about anything you want, and 
optionally add a video, image, or document as well. Others cannot edit or share the information in 
your update, but they can comment on it. All Updates are public.
Blog—In communities, use a blog to post commentary, descriptions of events, or other information 
of interest to community members. Others can comment on the content, and if given permission, can 
also edit the content. Note however that blogs cannot be shared across communities or individuals.
Content Publisher—Use the content publisher application to create and display Web content on 
one of your pages (a personal public page, such as My Profile, or a community page if you are a 
community owner/administrator), or on a private page, such as Home. Web content is most suitable 
for static or infrequently-changing content because it does not generate activities. Others cannot 
share or comment on the content, but in the case of communities, other community 
owners/administrators can edit the content. Note also that Web content cannot be shared across 
communities or individuals.
