Well said, John. I've been involved with many ventures over the years and the "social" aspects of being active within any given type of community does add quiet a bit of value to your business just as much as to the people who contribute to make it what it is (the inner circle.) The activiy builds up trust and lots of solid, long lasting relationships. Getting to know one another is very important and in 2009, directly via all the social networks, or at least some of the more popular ones such as fb, twitter, myspace, there is more opportunities than ever before to market and reach out, through very personal, creative and direct channels... Whether all the big brands/giants realize this and jump in --- who knows? Some already are and slowly but surely they will take notice as their competition will start to catch up with em...Maybe tables will be turned.. Today they can be small fish, next year.. Whales! Social media has that power to make it all happen.

Best,

Mike

Good post, John and Pete.

For this matter I definitely like to point you to the good writing from Seth Godin last week: "What is Viral Marketing?"
