		<description>IMHO, any day &quot;Wisdom of Crowd&quot; the underlying philosophy of Social Media is far superior than automated results thrown by some algorithm of modern search engine.

However, the process of acquiring information using Social Network/media is something that needs to be refined and looked into.

Right now I believe that this is what is hindering people to replace search engine with social media. I also understand that it&#039;s not replacement per se as both can be complimentary. It should be a right mix which at this time is more tilted in favor of search engines

		<description>Good points on social networking here. Let&#039;s not also forget how this translates into paying customers, relationships, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.maximumreferrals.com/blog rel=&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;referrals and referral marketing&lt;/a&gt;. In that regard, testing for value-reinforcement is an important issue and one that businesses need to do a better job effectively measuring --- whether or not a client/customer is finding value in the relationship. It’s important to discuss whether “value-delivered” (by me as a biz) equates to value-received (by you) in the customer’s mind. Thanks for reminding us.

		<description>Social networking sites are attracting one out of every 20 Web visits 14. In the month of September 2006, one out of every 20 U.S. Internet visits landed on one of the top 20  social networking Web sites, nearly double the share of visits compared with a year ago, according to a new study released by HitWise. Out of the 20 sites, MySpace is the undisputed leader.

		<description>Great article.  Social media is the new word of mouth and can bring great rewards to all businesses, large and small.  The difference is the social proof and actual engagement the business can make to affect the word of mouth that occurs.

		<description>Hey, great summary of the social networking sites and it seems they world of social networking can be fun but takes a lot of time late into the night.  I wonder what the hourly rate of return curve is if you run a business for all this social networking.

		<description>I have seen a great increase of traffic to my site just by linking it on many of these social networking sites.  For a designer like me that is crucial to showing off my work and getting new clients.
