When you have a group of people submitting their work, there is an awareness that it isn’t just one idea that will work, so the result is a higher quality of work. Crowdsourcing is an useful model because it can be used by any group for any reason. It also allows you to share your bookmarks on other social networking sites.

Twitter as a marketing tool. My opinion has not changed much since I wrote about Twitter’s ability to market products in March. However, I believe Twitter’s ability to market easily comes from those who associate usernames with brands. A marketing firm might want to sell a product. I still follow Woot.com.

However, the number of SEOs I’ve come across are much fewer and farther between than social media marketers. In fact, I hear the same SEO names every day; I learn of a new “social media expert&# twice a day. Despite this, social media marketing is much more difficult than search engine optimization.

Facebook is a great tool for marketing your business , but only if you use it correctly. Groups : Facebook Groups still exist, but I wouldn’t encourage using them unless you’re looking to maintain a fully closed and private community in the confines of the service. Only your name. Heck, most of you get it.

When contrasted with the StumbleUpon model, the FriendFeeds and Diggs of the world seem to have the process backwards. In other words, is FriendFeed really stealing your traffic away or is it just another way to market your content with a clickthrough ratio of its own?
