  1. “Today, if you're not staying current with Web 2.0 technologies' impact on business, then you'rejust not staying current. Period.” Sarah Perez of ReadWriteWebYou realize that there is a plethora of information available, some that is accurate and some that may not be accurate, but nevertheless you want to keep up. You are a true professional, and you don’t want to get caught not knowing your industry, your area of expertise.flickr.com/photos/liewcf/3547134847/  Source: social media playbook, 2009 Eloqua CorporationPage 5Motivations for contributing to online communities:Anticipated Reciprocity: Contributing valuable information in order to receive useful info in returnIncreased Recognition: Sense of efficacy. Contributing information because the contributor has some effect on the environment.Communion. We are social beings. There is a motivation in receiving a direct response to their contributions.
  2. Start somewhere.Ask audience which ones they have not heard of or do not recognizeMake sure you are following and friending others…Remember this is social!Your goal should be to engage consistently and authentically, while adding strategic thinking and planning to increase your business’ effectiveness.

  14. emarketer.com/Article.aspx?R=1007271In 2010, eMarketer expects 15.5% of all US adult Web users to use the microblogging service via any platform. In April, eMarketer estimated that there would be just 12.1 million US adult Twitter users this year. The upward revision is due to growth in Q2 2009 even stronger than the huge gains seen by Twitter in Q1. More than one-half of all Twitter users (53%) are women, and the majority are young. Among users who disclose their age, 66% are under 25, and another 15% are ages 25 to 29. Most Twitter users are quiet: 85.37% tweet less than once per day. Only about 1.1% of users update their timeline an average of more than 10 times daily. This means a small group of users dominate the Twitter timeline—75% of all Twitter activity comes from just 5% of users. Not surprisingly, the more followers a user has, the more that person tweets. Sysomos reported that the average number of daily updates rises from three to six among users with more than 1,000 followers. But relatively few users are that popular. In fact, almost 94% of Twitter users have fewer than 100 followers. Just 0.68% reach the thousand-follower mark. The situation is very similar in the other direction. The vast majority of users (92.4%) follow fewer than 100 other microbloggers. Less than 1% subscribe to the feeds of at least 1,000 others. Among users who identified themselves as marketers, the numbers were significantly higher: 15% follow more than 2,000 people. http://www.emarketer.com/Article.aspx?R=1007250
