-34C (-29F) right now in central Alberta. But I was just outside and oddly, it doesn't feel it.
RAPatton, Mike Nencetti, Kenton and 3 other people liked this
it feels it here. unless you mean it feels colder. :) (also: NO LIKE! NO LIKE!)
- Nathalie, Dreamer of FF
apparently snow is on the way for Hamilton ... we havent had any yet .. -34 is chilly .. Ive been to Edmonton .. and see the Furry RCMP guys .. chilly
- johnpiercy
My coldest was 60 below in Healy, Alaska. It was so cold that we couldn't travel back home after our away basketball game against Tri-Valley. We had to stay at the school until it "warmed" up to at least 50 below. That dry cold does help make it feel not as cold as, say, Seattle.
- Jackye Chan
Nathalie, well I spoke too soon, because I did feel it 30 min later when I had to chip ice off the concrete edge so the garage door would close.
- Micah Wittman
Well, it's a dry cold, so...
- MVB (Grinch of FF)
Jackye, -60? Subscribed! :)
- Micah Wittman
MVB, I've got a nice cuppa dry cold right here for ya - see how that goes down. ;)
- Micah Wittman
It's a known fact that when the temp drops below 65 degrees, you lose ALL feeling.
- Admiral Anika
The danger comes when you don't feel the pain any more.
- Micah Wittman
LOL Micah. I've been in Edmonton when it was cold. -45 or so air temperature. Nowhere near -60, though.
- MVB (Grinch of FF)
*nods* Anything past -50 is just for bragging rights - nobody actually orders that from the menu. :p
- Micah Wittman
Oi, 60 below means keeping your cars' engine running with a blanket on the hood. After the basketball game ended, I went outside to have a smoke (When I was crazy enough to smoke) and felt the sweat freeze instantaneously on my skin. Inhaling smoke felt like refrigerated air.
- Jackye Chan
Never experienced -60 either, and I'm OK with that. Am amazed how quickly our bodies adapt every year. Started my car in a sweatshirt today at -27 and it wasn't too bad.
- Kenton
you should give a call to Al Gore, the temperatures would rise fast ;)
- ovigia
He can't be called anymore - he put his cell phone in the lockbox.

I'm gonna quit my bitchin' although it's 50F in Los Angeles, and it's nearly an abomination.

will Linkedin acquire Xing before of after their (Linkedin) IPO next year? What's your best guess as it affects my share price?
Raffaella Grassi, Marcus Schroefel and Louis Gray liked this
Typically, the company being acquired gains a premium on the share price. That said, LinkedIn going public is not 100% certain, nor is any interest in their acquiring Xing. Maybe they will and maybe they won't.

Interesting stuff...thanks for sharing
- Hugo Guzman
Great info! I agree fish where the fish are :)
- Peter du Toit (S.Africa)
Agree on the whole. I always find these categories a little artificial: Really "Forrester-speak". :) I think the recommendations are the most interesting. I'd make a separate post out of that.
- Meryn Stol
You say it yourself: "What’s interesting isn’t this vision for the future, but what it holds in store for brands, " . I'd like these recommendations to be fleshed out with concrete first steps to take. Doesn't have to be more than links to relevant resources.
- Meryn Stol
Meryn The recommendations are fleshed out in the actual reports. Our clients (brands) have access to see them.
- Jeremiah Owyang
Hmm ok... Then I'll need to get the details elsewhere I guess. :)
- Meryn Stol
Interesting categorization of the development into eras. Any consideration to the impact of scale on the 5th era? Just as a recent example with Facebook, their format evolution was not well received by what is not an insignificant number of members, and yet the reality is - that change - negative impact not withstanding is not rolling back.
- Patrick Boegel
There will be a give and take between communities and brands. The thing is, Facebook doesn't have a competitive alternative that users could go to. In my report, we suggest that active communities could define specs for products, and bid MULTIPLE companies to build it.
- Jeremiah Owyang
I completely understand that Jeremiah, just wondering if the nature of scale impacted or perhaps better said impacts the thought process for very complex long term brand relationships, ie Health Insurance, Financial Services, a college/university choice, where consversation and user invovlement can be complicated. Very interested in the full report either way. Thx.
- Patrick Boegel
good stuff Jeremiah, enjoyed and some good thought provokers there for the future
- Richard Binhammer
Nice paper but really expensive for young people. $750 means $41 for page.
- Alp
Great information, understanding the future's potential is more important than ever on the social web.
- Maria Reyes-McDavis
Interesting, but very general and hard to apply. I see companies more as å provide of tools/stage for conversation, aka the gold rush mining vs selling tools
- Anders Dahlberg
Alp, Many of Forrester's clients are large brands who have a subscription. We're still sharing a great deal on this blog, and have given the report to bloggers to cover, so there's value to be had there.
- Jeremiah Owyang
Jeremiah (and the team), a great piece of work and, I imagine, a labour of both love and loathing at times! I have been very interested in this area as I have looked at the shift in skills to deliver social media activity changes from one of basic coding knowledge to much more human, interactive skills.
- Paul Fabretti
Fantastic article! I found it SO intriguing that I've even printed it out!
- J. D. Ebberly
"How Brands Should Prepare" is a great bit of information. Jeremiah, it would be nice (i'd be reading) if you expanded in future blog posts about the "How Brands Should Prepare".
- frank barry
That's likely to be a research report I'm thinking about writing Frank
- Jeremiah Owyang
Probably correct in assuming that most online social networks will neither spawn nor solidify to the point of being considered ‘affinity groups’ with the level of cohesion, unified budgetary authority or organized implementation capability of NGOs, churches, or employee aggregations. Even in the era of social commerce. I hope I’m wrong.

- Howard Moorey
I usually try to avoid desktop software and stick to webapps. This way I'm not depending on a certain machine. Just give me net and a browser and I can get 80% of my jobs done. Still - managing multiple profile from within iGoogle for example is possible, but not convenient. So I might give TD another try. There's one major drawback: It uses AIR. I hate that RAM-wasting monster.

Nicholas James, Iván Abrego, Ade Lack and 9 other people liked this
Admittedly very clever, and probably very useful for some, but I've never gotten any DM spam. I thought you had to follow somebody for them to send you a DM, and I don't do auto-follow so I don't follow spammers. Anyway, I like the DM->email idea and always thought that should have been in there to begin with.
- Otto
Otto, yes, this was targeted mostly to those that are more aggressive in who they follow back. However, the DM e-mails themselves can be pretty useful even if you don't auto-follow. If there's anything we can add to them to make your life easier please let me know.
- Jesse Stay
Hi Jesse, I've been 'Socialtoo' curious for a while and gave it a whirl. Now I do not autofollow back and I'm not a poweruser. The people who follow me are generally fellow-geeks and spambots (luckily not too many of the latter, but it goes in phases). So, as a fairly average user, is SocialToo right for me? And, by logging into the site does that change my Twitter settings so I do...

- WorldofHiglet
It doesn't activate anything automatically, near as I can tell. I had to turn the bits I wanted on. Works very well.
- Otto
No, I don't think it does it automatically, Otto. But that could be clearer in the front page because if people *think* it is automatic it might put them off.
- WorldofHiglet
Thanks WoH - yes, you're right. Nothing should be activated when you log in. You have to check the boxes on your preferences to enable anything. We're working on the UI - I'm not a graphic designer so it's not my specialty. What I am good at is functionality so that's been our focus. UI is going to be one of our next focuses though and I appreciate your feedback.

Jesse - it's an impressive piece of kit!
