Social Media 2008

Brian Solis, co-founder of the Social Media Club, is discussing the current state of social media for 2008. Solis talks about his public speaking tours around the country and stresses the importance of the global renaissance of social media in our society. Solis says, “The world of Socialized Media is maturing and along with it, our knowledge, expertise, reach, and personal and represented brands are only flourishing. It will continue as long as we realize that these new social tools and networks require an entirely new commitment and embodiment of what we personify and how we can be a genuine resource to the people who define the communities that are important to us.”
Solis is right on this one data suggests that blogging is on the rise globally, and will soon evolve into a social norm amongst public relations practitioners.
