@rotkapchen In my experience, good companies have a clear market direction, set priorities and let employees run with it. E2.0 included.
@ITSinsider Neighborhood watering holes can be a great time. The local one near me is full of interesting characters.

Makes you wonder... - Hutch Carpenter via email
LOL! WHAT?! - Rahsheen ™
Oh, I would totally have taken that. - Rochelle
Not sure which is funnier...seeing this printed on a box or knowing that somewhere out there is a machine that is intentionally printing this on thousands of boxes! - Bill Lunsford
@rotkapchen Yup Paula. Comfort with the strategies, the employee capabilities, a sense of confidence about where you're going. That's mgt.
@JeremyMeyers Particularly like it as @CarolineDangson is an industry analyst calling it like she sees it
"#1 factor preventing full adoption of social media is the lack of executive trust in employees" http://blogs.zdnet.com/feeds... by @CarolineDangson
@JDEbberly Hey thanks for that man! Lofty compliment, especially since I'm just another guy out here. Too kind.
@gialyons Nice customer there Gia. 175K? Whew!
@oline73 Hi there. You have questions about Scoble's Number?

@swiertz Is that right? An RSS feed of a twitter search can take up to 6 hours for updates? Whoa.
Guy comments on TechCrunch that tweets take too long to go into FriendFeed: http://www.techcrunch.com/2009... Running my own test now.
17 seconds. A little slow tonight. Seen them come through almost instantly. - Hutch Carpenter
I, like perhaps you do, have a daily google alert on my name. Notice that single tweets are starting to make it into those alerts lately.
How do i set one of those up, Hutch? - Mathew A. Koeneker
Mathew - just go here, and put your name in (I use quotes around mine): http://www.google.com/alerts - Hutch Carpenter
Nice if your "Hutch Carpenter" or "Mathew Koeneker", but if you're "Mark Stevens", you may as well be "John Smith". Everyone needs to give their kids really unique names now (and squat on the domain too). - Mark Stevens
Mark, that just means you have to work twice as hard. Try being Peter Kim. - Peter Kim
Thanks, Hutch for the tip! - Mathew A. Koeneker
Oh yeah, I got the Google juice flowing now. :-) - Mathew A. Koeneker
btw Hutch I mentioned your name the other day, but it was in a presentation and screencast. presentation is here http://vimeo.com/5407512 screencast here http://vimeo.com/5317872 - Keith (aka Tsudohnimh)
both mentions in gratitude for you showing how friendfeed entries show up in Google - Keith (aka Tsudohnimh)
Really? Thanks Keith - let me check those out. - Hutch Carpenter
Yep, same for me too! But doesn't catch all tweets though. - Samuel Driessen
For another way of doing this try using a vanity/branded room on Friendfeed. Setup searches via Google, Twitter, Backtype, and pump them all into one room. - Keith (aka Tsudohnimh)
@keith thats exactly how i do it. - Carlos Ayala
I like these tips. Thanks, ya'll! :-) - Mathew A. Koeneker
FriendFeed adds native hashtags. Now you can add tags in FF posts & comments, they are automatic search links: http://friendfeed.com/paul...
@rotkapchen I agree about the need to have your community there to make FriendFeed interesting for engagement. E2.0 is slowly growing.
@rotkapchen Do tell. What part of FriendFeed is frustrating?
RT @BillIves# Bing up to 8% in June, but #Google still led w 78% of U.S. #search market http://www.wired.com/epicent...
Funny discussion by @peterkim and @markstevens20 about the need to give your kids unique names in a social media world http://friendfeed.com/bhc3...
It's the new personal branding kick - kids with unique names can still snap them up as .coms and twitter handles. I manage to be the first dpritchett on plenty of services but I still get wayward emails addressed to other dpritchetts. - Daniel J. Pritchett
Indeed, "Meryn" works quite well for me. I'm able to register with my first name on most services. My parents were *clearly* ahead of their time. ;) Also, give them a last name which is pronounceable in English if you don't have one. - Meryn Stol

@anna_mcg @BarryDwyer @mpbennett Thanks for the info on banks being open Friday July 3rd. Just companies closed that day, it appears.
Nice post about harnessing community brainpower to solve problems, and Spigit http://blogs.sun.com/drapeau... by Sun Micro's @drapeau
Are U.S. banks closed both Friday and Saturday for the July 4th holiday?
@shanepearson Yeah, I'm sure. Someone at Google decided to "turn on" the tweet searches I guess. Bing's on it as well: http://www.bing.com/communi...

Bing is starting to serve up the latest tweets for people when you search their name + "twitter". Nicely done. http://www.bing.com/communi...
