I like Yakob’s slide set below and some of the points he makes in his blog post on the hype and chatter surrounding social media, particularly this one aimed at brands.
So, looking at a short term ROI when assessing the value of social media is antithetical to the emerging reputation and gift economy that operates there. You need to take a longer- term view. Brands need to pay it forward in social spaces.
