in Do You Love Your Customers? on Jacob Morgan on Social Media, Technology, Marketing, and Life
I love my customers because they pay me money.
Everyone else can go to hell.

Maybe you should edit that initial description then to state the video WOULD be viral, but not "biral" so that people aren't confused by your mistake? That way the comments will not focus on the mistake, but rather your biral concept.

And while we're at it, I hereby claim "miral" to be all viral videos about me.

If a video gets 450k views on YouTube, then it is viral.
The definitions you project are yours alone. Viral means...viral. It spread like a virus. It got 450k views.
If the business you mentioned claimed that they were creating a viral video about THEIR business, then, yes, I guess they failed.
But you never said they made that claim. And I don't see how you have the right to say what is and what is not viral for pieces that spread....virally.

in Is Your Company Trying To Regulate Social Media Usage? on Jacob Morgan on Social Media, Technology, Marketing, and Life
You seem to be saying that the employee MIGHT contribute value while spending "a lot of time" NOT doing their job.
In the scenario you are imagining, did the employee go to the employer FIRST and mention their intent to spend "a lot of time" doing something other than their job?
If not, no matter what the POSSIBLE benefit, the employee is taking it into his or her hands to not do the job they were hired to do.

@ Jacob
Keep in mind you said this person was spending "a lot of time" on this activity.
Let me repeat.
A lot of time.
That means: A lot of time NOT doing the work their employer asked them to.
As far as I am concerned, a GOOD employee would be spending "a lot of time" going the extra mile, helping out co-workers who have a lot of work, ANYTHING.

Re: "If a company finds out that someone is spending a lot of time on twitter, is it wise to reprimand the person, OR, to make him the social media ambassador for the company?"
I'd say fire the fucker. If he has no respect for the company's and is Twittering all day, he deserves to be canned, not promoted!
But the question comes down to: is the person in good standing at work? Do others respect the employee? Is that employee getting all the work done on an A+ level?
If not, you shouldn't be spending "a lot of time" not doing your job.
The example employee just sounds really lazy to me.
