RMC Tech is my tech repair company. I started the company in 2011, after having been immersed in the blogosphere and social media for years. Besides building iPhone apps, our core service is iPhone repair. But just having the skills to rip apart an iPhone and replace the screen doesn’t really do me any good.

there’s a schism coming in social media between companies using it for marketing, and companies using it for customer service and CRM. Brand communities, contests, most social listening, and non-promotional tweeting fits into this category. Like Sonny divorcing Cher (or was it the other way around?)
