I found myself at the start of this year full of energy and ready to go, then all of a sudden ways of processing information online and in networks of people changed rapidly. I had to break through it all - build myself a place one location that had all those resources in one. I renamed to me.dm quickly because i realised to save myself and the stress of trying to adapt to all these new ideas and ideals.

I've still not got there yet but at least i have my eggs in one basket yet spread out over many sites. I think the biggest job skill in the future is the one of being able to adapt and react to progress instead of absorbing and getting frustrated with things.

Thanks for the mention btw. As for the sustainable flow of business, it's not really about the business it is about people having access to all the sides of my character, from twitter to flickr, to facebook. The SAVVY information person can build up a profile of me for themselves from all these "mediums" because after all your really interested in ME as a person to DO the job. The job does not do itself, i do the work. ..

Am i the type of person you WANT to work for you? - having all these social networks and connections enables me to sidestep the awkward nature of business and get back to basics.

THIS IS ME, WHAT CAN WE DO TOGETHER - fun, play or work. It's simple.

Chris,

I think a big part of this is going to be what I call the Robert Putnam/"Bowling Alone" question. I like to say that Putnam got it wrong when he said that America's social fabric was falling apart -- it's just that bowling leagues have been replaced with Facebook groups and World of Warcraft guilds, to name just two.

But the issue that we (meaning my organization -- click on my name for a link) are struggling with right now is how do you convert a virtual network into a real one. We're trying to do just that by getting our social network to lobby their elected officials. But will it work? We don't know.

I would love to hear what others thing about this and what they think of our efforts as well -- I only wish I was able to be the lead you're looking for!

I thought I was the only one who liked taking and posting so many pictures of myself. Looks like I'm not alone now.

Chris, I've got a post for the 100 comments project. Where do I list it?

Chris,

I'm exploring these very questions right now, doing research not only for two of my blogs (http://CreativeSage.wordpre... and: http://CathrynHrudicka.word...), but I've also suggested we do this as a kind of demographic and psychodemographic study, and marketing/biz dev study, as a Social Media Club project. I have been a project lead many times and will be glad to discuss the scope and requirements with you, or in any case, collaborate. Please email, call or Skype me if you want to discuss further: sage at CreativeSage.com. Skype: CreativeSage

Chris, I know i'm not a lead but i'd like to help. I think the idea is worthy of the effort. bad thing is that I'm at the airport sans laptop so I cant do a lot of reading up on the idea. That said, what I read above has my curiosity piqued.
