Social networking has in a way, but on a much larger scale, brought us back in time a little bit with regard to business relationships. I think we are headed for more of a "mom and pop" way of doing things. You are right, I think that people are tired of being nothing but dollars in a bank account or numbers on a spreadsheet.

This is very true, and a lot more businesses are realizing it. For example, the company I work for just redid their website to include a blog. “Any business that is not online and being social is really missing out on an excellent opportunity for growth.”

What I have seen is it is a difference in vison than more traditional marketing and so it seems mystical to many people. In the end, it’s all about building relationships, don’t you think? The video is clever in how it communicates its message. Certainly makes you pay attention! I have always seen that it’s more than luck or cleverness that makes social marketing successful.

Sure. I have to remind myself as well. Why do you think it’s so easy for people not to get this?

Chadwyck,
I just believe there’s no reason to hide what you know. Doesn’t sharing what you know establish expertise? And doesn’t it help to build relationships?

David,
Isn’t Big Brother an issue with the entire internet?

Home Recording,
I did a poor job today writing a post coming off your point of not thinking about people as being morons. Looks like I did a poor job. Or maybe the topic is too raw. Not sure. Thoughts?

Phil,
It is. Any suggestions about how to do it well?

SeaBird,
I agree. Did it make you consider doing anything differently?

Both are making great valid points. Both come as very optimistic if somewhat wary. I tend to be more cynical. The big brother metaphor certainly is a real possibility, but more than that, is the possibility that the conversationalist is trying to influence people and make friends using the formula that was made popular by Dale Carnegie. Superficial, insincere and for sensitive people, clearly sending wrong signals. The question is how to use technology to bring about genuine conversation, a real exchange of information giving dignity to both the participants. The dignity of accepting that the other fellow is not a moron. David and Dawud, there is a message there somewhere in those two lovely names!

But what happens if the conversation isn’t allowed to be open and free? Does this diminish the community and, hence, the product?" I believe that if a conversation is dictated by limitations, than that is not a true conversation. To walk up to a someone and start a conversation but immediately state what we can or can not talk about defeats the purpose of talking. Take this online and yes if the conversation is not open and free it does diminish the community and the product. In the industry that I am in I see a lot of attempts to have conversation. But I am starting to notice they don't all come across as genuine. You get the sense that "big brother" is watching and listening and will immediately reprimand anyone who is saying something they shouldn't. Dawud,

I like that you practice what you preach: sharing ideas, establishing your name/brand, fostering trust and openness... it's good :) D,
