“Conventional” social media wisdom would have it that companies need to pay attention to the blogosphere, or risk their brands. For proof, out trots the example of Jeff Jarvis and Dell Hell. Jarvis’ complaints about Dell customer service percolated up to mainstream media and are oft-cited as the impetus behind Dell’s *big* move into social media about a year ago.
Now, you may sense a certain cynical undertone in the above paragraph, and you would be right. While I absolutely believe that companies should be listening to what bloggers — their customers — say, I am regularly provided with proof that either companies aren’t listening or they are, and have no bloody idea what to say, or how to say it, when faced with blogosphere complaints, o…

“It makes perfect sense that technology companies should take over the advertising industry. Nobody in Silicon Valley will win a Clio Award, but they will help clients get more than $1 back for every $1 of advertising they spend — and advertisers have always cared more about their bottom lines than Madison Avenue’s ego.”– P…

Liam from InterFUEL sent me their latest report on kids and virtual worlds, which they will be presenting next week at the Youth Marketing Mega Event. The recommendations are cleverly matched with Maslow’s hierarchy of needs — they feel obvious to me (but I’m sure I’m not their intended customer). I think mixing under 13 worlds with 13 & up worlds as examples is a little confusing as well, only because you would have to have very controlled versions of Gaia’s features in a world for younger kids. You can buy the full report online h…
