And it is a two-headed sword for small businesses. On the one hand it opens up opportunities for small businesses to level the playing field if they have the skillsets to publish and generate media. On the other hand, it will block out many small businesses that don’t get on board media creation, for whatever reasons: lack of time, lack of skilled staff, lack of creativity.

Can’t wait to see your book. Happy new year,

Anita

“Algorithms & Community” on importance of the ‘human’ voice

and also

“What We Lose As Search Gets Personal”

Which are much needed observations.

My only actualy concern is trying to understand how I managed to get in a position where I’m reading blog postings on New Year’s Eve?

Thanks also for posting the picture of your new home office - and thus making my little prediction come true; and, last, but not least, thank you for following me on Twitter.<br /> Regarding Twitter: you turned me on to it. I think Twitter's niche should be about quality and not about the sheer quantity of how many followers one can amass. My idea to improve it would be to limit the number of followers one can have to say 14,000 - and the number one can follow to say 140 - to keep the theme with their 140 character messages. Here's to a healthy and prosperous 2009! </p> Thank you, John, for sharing so many of your savvy assessments of the current state of so much that is – or soon will become important – as well as your visions as to what the future will hold for all of us.
