I’d love to befriend everyone or even specify groups of friends to which I’d subscribe so that I can get updates delivered to my RSS reader (versus other updates that I would check on a more infrequent basis), though for the time being, the team has not worked that out. And that others could see my stuff.

If a product is bad, there will be enough people raising their concerns loudly enough that companies have no option but to react very quickly: a few bad reviews could kill a product launch. Anyone can post a review on Amazon saying this product is broken and negatively affect future sales. Why is this different than a few years ago?

I mentioned that I wasn’t going to touch Facebook and Twitter, so I’ll recommend that if a happy customer writes a review via email or Yelp – give them a call and thank them. It’s an imperative part of your job to not only control and monitor your company’s reputation, but to create it to begin with.

It’s not enough to be insular and focus on your groups of friends. At business networking events, try to get to know people outside your group of trusted colleagues. We may be slightly different versions of ourself when with each of these different groups. I created an additional account for people in that group.

Some time ago, I got a free review copy of your book from O’Reilly… But, hey, I have recommended it to many! I actually solicited users to review my book and I actually encouraged it! But a review copy is usually provided under the premise that you’d be, you know, reviewing it. In that first approach.

You never want to work for a company who has a bad reputation, especially if you plan to remain in this industry. All social media etiquette rules were not heeded to.

We may never know why someone who (by her own claims on Google Groups) was pulling in $5,000/month via counseling fees, affiliate marketing programs, and essays posted to paying websites such as Squidoo, would risk it all in a scheme that only raised a few hundred dollars. But in reviewing her facebook page, all her personal info is valid.

Abusing group invites. And if they don’t accept, don’t send the group request more than once by asking them to join via email, wall post, or Facebook message. In a specific case, I manage a few LinkedIn groups so my email address is far more visible on the site than I’d like. Many call this spam.

I do review each person who follows me. I enjoy this group and do engage. I will call this group my social experiment.

I was a Facebook purist in its former form and I liked having access to select group of exclusive folks knowing that these were trusted people and that only certain groups of individuals were allowed to have access. It’s a bit like group therapy. Yup, it’s true. It felt good to be exclusive.

Why are they continually treated as a one or the other skill set when in reality both groups would be best served understanding what is on the other side of the fence?
