So any thoughts? Is it adopting the same model as Net Promoter Score?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7815640431651173676.post-49163456105266939212009-01-27T13:57:00.000+00:002009-01-27T13:57:00.000+00:00There's much to explore in what you say gregory.

Perhaps even in our open-ness we see advantage for ourselves (I am the made greater by the sum of my connections, so are my connections)<BR/>I do believe a more connected world is a better one for all. I like to think we all have moments to shine, but niche by niche, purpose by purpose, there are moments like that for all of us.<BR/>Yes there are the self promoters, but then there are others who are promoting the ideas - that open beats closed, that going beyond silos has more value for all of us.<BR/>Where do I stand in all this? I am a node, I am a connection. Sometimes that is helpful. That's the best I can hope for, I think?David Cushmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09626601471173841299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7815640431651173676.post-91987233754761150082009-01-27T13:38:00.000+00:002009-01-27T13:38:00.000+00:00the obvious, lots of room now for honesty and stra...the obvious, lots of room now for honesty and straight talk ..<BR/><BR/>but i want to talk about something more subtle, and more curious to me, and that is the mindset of those who seem to be the leading-edge purveyors of the "new way" using new media ...<BR/><BR/>i have never heard so many talking about listening, so many conversations about conversation .. twitter is a zoo of new media gurus .. the keynote speakers and report writers and book sellers and consultants around the new media thing are themselves highly deserving of being ignored ...<BR/><BR/>there are some curious things going on in the conversation about all this stuff, that makes me look up the word "enabler" to describe all the evangelists, divas, exponents ... they are still in the old mindset of self-promotion, just using new tools ... or so it seems to megregoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14408369948377761936noreply@blogger.com
