Tumbling Along With Me

The current state of the internet (the good and some of the bad) in 2 minutes.

If you are just getting started with your business and Social Media, here is a great starting place from The OPEN Forum. If it seems like there is just too much and it is all too complicated, here is the perfect place for you to get your feet wet.

In a report published by Forrester Research, one-third of adults online are “conversationalists,” posting to sites like Twitter and Facebook at least once per week. The group is age 30 and older and, not surprisingly, mostly women. It also reported that 17 percent of the internet participates in social networking at all.

FYI - This is why you want to figure out how Social Media can work into your business. If this is the extent that people are contributing, just try to imagine the extent that they are lurking.
