As conversations go, 140 characters blasted to the world could be seen as pretty thin. But as an instant update tool, it's fantastic-- if, of course, you can access Twitter on your cellphone.

How do marketers leverage this info? They must understand the profile(s) of their clients, specifically...how they interact/participate with social networks. Overlay the Business objectives...to Listen, Talk, Embrace, Energize or Support and you create a winning formula. Companies & Marketers can't simply make decisions based on macro level trends regarding demographics. Each brand has a variety of clients. Each Social network has a variety of participants. Odds are a % of everyone's clients are participating in each social network. Some networks deliver better results with some objectives vs. others. Facebook is a great community to Embrace advocates & Energize fans via non-intrusive/participation-based ads. Whereas Twitter is a powerful community for Listening & Monitoring your brand, Talking about your company & Supporting those in need. I have yet to see brands leverage Twitter to Embrace & Energize. Perhaps because - as you say Dave - it is "transitory" Ultimately, it is about achieving the desired objectives to drive the Client Experience Index higher while promoting Advocates & moving Detractors up the ladder. Loved the post.
