Rolling on the floor! That is a really funny list… I answered yes to a few of them, guess I am not a “GURU” huh?

Glad you enjoyed the post, Scott – Suze definitely has oodles of wit about her (and if you're on Twitter I recommend following her!).

In a more serious tone, companies like yours are exactly why social media needs to be clear and transparent, with no false experts or gurus confusing you even further. There are some great people out there to turn to and who'll be all too happy to offer you great advice – you can tell who they are by the non-showing of "expert" or "guru" in their bio, and recommendations from others…

I love the comical twist you put on this. I own a website development company, which means I know software and technology, but as many other computer geeks, I am not as gifted with the social part of social media. I'm learning my way around it, and love the new relationships I'm building on places like twitter, but I have run across many of the people you describe here. I think every person that's new to social media should read this. It will save them a lot of time and frustration. Scott Mahler's Recent post...Happy New Year!

Coming from Chris’s right hand girl, you hit the nail on the head, Kathryn – as Suze says, real guru’s don’t “try”, they just “do”. Kinda like Yoda…

Thanks for stopping by and sharing, Kathryn – look forward to seeing you around some more.

Thanks SuzeMuze , funny, and very true. The people who are trying and who are less than genuine seems to fall off the genuine train quite quickly don’t you find? I love the part about not being the best but being genuinely invloved?

(thanks Danny )
