If there's one thing that social media will/should always be remembered for if/when it's no longer current, it's the way it helped shape the new way of doing business. You know, the one where you actually have to <i>care</i> about your customers... Agreed, Joey.

I'm currently re-reading "The Cluetrain Manifesto" and taking notes on it for a webinar a friend and I might be doing. I'm delving deeper into it that I did on my first read and it is making a world of difference. One thing "Cluetrain" talks about is how the old marketing mindset of "us-them" is currently being blurred and harder to make out. We *are* them and they are us in many cases. Social media might not change everything, but it changes the ways in which we communicate and what we perceive as *normal* conversation and that actually changes quite a bit in the world of marketing and PR.

I like that a lot. That's a very cool way to look at it Danny. I will probably steal this phrase and claim it as my own as I usually do. It's funny how so many people say I am starting to sound like Danny Brown. : ) Very nice post! Thank you. Today the “target audience is the marketer.” I like that a lot.
