How social media has flipped the landscape of marketing – Guy Kawasaki
explains:
In the past - - • A small number of
gurus, influencers, experts, reporters, A-listers, reviewers, editors, analysts, engineers, advisors, oracles, etc have the monopoly on insight and influence. You must get their attention.
Today - • The pyramid is now
inverted. We may reach out to the “A-listers” (or not) but today’s real influencers are bloggers, tweeters, fans, volunteer brand ambassadors, and other “nobodies.” When they recognize your product, the A-listers have to react.

Twitter 101• Quite often, people’s gut reaction to Twitter is, “No one
needs to know what I’m doing” or “I don’t care what other people are doing.”
• While this may be the surface view, Twitter is also a great way to expand your network. In the words of Chris Brogan, Twitter is a useful communication tool that allows you to interact with people around the world in three ways:
1) Send a short message to a bunch of people publicly2) Send a short message to a specific person publicly3) Send a short message to a specific person privately

• Crash Davis speaks: “You know what• the difference is between hitting .250
and hitting .300? • I got it figured out. Twenty-five hits a

about 25 weeks -- you get one extra flare a week -- just one -- a gork, a ground ball with eyes, a dying quail -- just one more dying quail a week and you're in Yankee Stadium!”
