Why did BFD become a bunch of incoherent retweets with nebulous links to outside information? Seems like social media has become a lazy man’s refuge of informational masturbation. Do you guys seriously think people have the interest or patients to drill through all these links? Post some original information with substance that people can read in English.

I’d be happy to give you author permissions if you’d like to take a crack at being an interesting blogger. Don’t worry, the irony of a snarky comment bemoaning the lack “original info w/ substance” isn’t lost on me.

Much appreciated. I might just take you up on that.

George:
My sense is that some folks have not engaged Twitter, so these RT’s have little meaning to them. Until they get the hang of Twitter’s Pig Latin, people may find these posts more annoying than informative.
For me, I think it’s a good integration, but you might include a sentence or two of context.

From a slightly different angle, but related, here’s an excellent article describing how Virgin America is leveraging the new value Web 2.0 tools can offer to companies. When strategically combined with real time conversation, tools like blogs and the Twitter mini blog, everyone can benefit from new insights, connections and even product innovation – in this case focused on customer service. Think of tools like Twitter just another device to harvest the fields of innovation already growing here, like what the invention of the combine or the baler did for haying. No more hand cutting and stacking, just automated baling. Here’s the article: Real-Time Conversations Hasten Social SRM.
