Social Networking

So yesterday I was with my best friend and she was having a conversation about how she needs to talk more about her company and plug it more.....

So this is my issue first we are told that we shouldn't blog, tweet, facebook or anything that would put our companies in the limelight with social networking.....

Now we are told that we should have a healthy mix of company and personal information on our personal social networking. I am completely ok with this and think that it is a great way to promote what you do as well as your company but I would like some clarity on what changed from a year ago. It seems that large companies are holding back to see if the "fad" of social networking will go away or if it is here to stay.....

My Vote.... completely here to stay. It will help us put humanity back into reaching people and our reach will be global instead of just our own personal space and area.

Technology is racing towards connecting people globally... we are able to now download applications for facebook, twitter, skype, LinkedIn, and Ping.fm to our phones and drive our updates via mobile.  The ability to run our lives from these types of technologies are only going to greatly increase.  I am so excited to see what the future is going to hold.  I love to research and find out what new technologies are coming our way!
