My top tip would be to set up some RSS feeds of Technorati tags and Google Blog Alerts, using the name of your institution / website / blog / exhibition / service / product as the keyword. Then every day, try to respond to or act on something you see being said online (remembering that not everyone wants to hear from you).

Thanks Miraz!
A friend suggested that 5 minutes a day spent doing a manual check of all your main landing pages and forms wouldn’t go to waste … there’s nothing worse than being the last to know that your homepage isn’t loading!
Yes! I just discovered a big old error on my personal blog that must have crept in when I updated some things a week ago…
