Thanks for ranting…so I didn’t have to.

Social media is a means to an end, not an end in itself. For most brands, social media goes no further than this; be genuine, authentic, and real in all your interactions. And always deliver on your promises. Amen.

that is a great post. hilarious, truthful and measured. i suppose it’s only natural for inventors to have disdain for what has come before them… perhaps it’s an easy way to add contrast to their evangelizing. two things have happened: social media is a whole new toolbox. and it’s existence demands we reappraise the existing toolbox. but… it’s still all stuff for us to use.

great post. Just linked to it on my blog… so right on that this should be a direct strike in the hearts and minds of marketers…

social media is as disruptive as search was..I remember all the same arguments on search marketing back in 1998-2001..

great post…. oh I guess that I’m an expert on social media

Comment on Open Letter To Disney: Are You Moinotring The Consumer Conversation? by Wolfgang Leander

Dear Mr. Iger:

I back Mr. Hellers letter of protest fully, and would expect the Board of Directors of Disney to see to it that sponsoring shark tournaments ends immediately as such an insensible and reckless PR activity is not compatible with the company’s set of moral standards.

I will follow this closely and trust that the Board of Directors of Disney will listen…

Best regards,

Wolfgang Leander

Dear Bob Iger,

What a sad day it is when disney,who has represented kids for so many years is now supporting the destruction of sharks. Sponsoring a shark fishing tournament is abhoring to me when you state you are in to protecting the enviroment. These tournaments are cruel to the sharks and what the fisherment don’t mention is that a lot of the sharks die later due to the build up of lactic acid. I hope that disney will reconsider supporting such events.

Sincerely,

Andrea Tinney

Remember….Extinction is forever!!!!!
