I help businesses understand how customers and communities have changed marketing, PR, and communications - and how to bring value in this new environment.
The most searched and used (usually without credit) of my images is something I pulled together in Keynote for a post titled - What is new Media? http://www.conversationagent.com/2007...

why do you think it is so difficult to attribute work? After all it is just as easy to copy the image, as it is to insert a credit link... - Valeria Maltoni
Ppl don't attribute because they feel guilty. If they attribute, they feel they need to ask. No attribution, no need to ask. Lame, because most people share freely when asked. - Tyler Hurst
That's pretty lame, I agree :) - Valeria Maltoni
@joshchandler good thinking. On the workplan for next customer service post :)
@CKsays as I wrote this AM. May all spammers and push marketers get what they give a thousand-fold ;-)
@joshchandler that's not how I operate - bad karma is bad karma :) I will however be careful not to use or pay for their products/scvs
Are you listening, Yahoo? Do you care? I would if I were you.
@DR1665 why force users to lie? It was the account tied to Fast Company activities...
@jerseybites nope, some marketer is trying to get more info to spam account holders. Phone number (?!?) I'm on "do not call"
@DR1665 they want my phone number - forget it.
@jerseybites I've had this account for almost 10 years... if they haven't learned about me by now, they were not listening :)
Yahoo locked me out of my email account unless I give them more info about myself. Boooo

@DyanaValentine I agree, @communicatrix rocks. Interview at Conversation Agent next week :) How have you been?
Six levels of engagement in online conversations http://lateralaction.com/article...

Rajesh Setty: "it is easy to engage in activities that are not productive. This is true especially when it comes to activities that are geared towards building engagement with the other person. Sometimes, it is easy to think you are engaged when you are not even on the other person’s radar." I love it how he asks the same question I posed myself "are *you* engaged?" - Valeria Maltoni
@robsaker @cbmatthews if you haven't met each other, you should. You're both saying the same thing.
@cbmatthews a good start, thank you. Context and critical thinking are so important to learning...

@cbmatthews can you be more specific? Why and what would be your suggestion? So we can all learn.
Can nuanced discourse compete against “strategy by soundbite”? http://www.taylordavidson.com/writing...

"Simplified strategies that can be condensed and packaged into soundbites spread into society’s collective conscious and accepted wisdom far faster than nuanced, complex ideas under the economics of today’s media. While the clamor for heuristics, stereotypes and easy answers isn’t new, if we demand thoughtful discourse and nuanced answers can we reshape the economics of media?" - Valeria Maltoni
To all those who set up spam - email, traackbacks, blog comments, etc. - may you receive a thousand fold of what you give.
