in How You Can Use Social Media to Help the U.S. Auto Industry on The Social Media Marketing Blog
Scott, what a well thought out post and one that should be read by anyone trying to discuss this situation intelligently. I continue to follow all your online commentary because I think it is important.
Keep up the good fight my friend!

in Web 3.0 and Knowability -- Diagram on burganprell
Josh, good stuff, wish I had been at the session b/c the data portability issue is something I'm really interested in seeing how it gets addressed. I'm currently doing some stuff with semantic HTML, even with no official spec, and the challenges are pretty daunting at this point.

in Taking the "Me" Out of Social Media on The Social Media Marketing Blog
Bravo Scott, something that needs to be said and folks, myself included, should all look in the mirror. Here is where social media can police itself, however, because you can quickly un-follow their blogs, Twitter, etc. Something I've been doing with more regularity as of late.
The other thing I wish people would do less of is tell us about their stats...it is becoming nearly unbearable. I've even criticized myself for this, yep, nobody is exempt from my wrath. Wait, is that being narcissistic?

in Notes and numbers on Boston to Austin drive on Boston to Austin
If you are staying in St. Louis for any amount of time definitely check out the new Busch Stadium and of course the Budweiser tour (even if you hate beer, the tour is staggering). And if you need any St. Louis eatery recommendations you just let me know...more specifically my wife who is a native.
Looking forward to seeing you in Austin!

Oh I see. So your friends must have something configured incorrectly in Disqus. Ok, thanks for letting me know. I was concerned that perhaps some people were unable to comment on my blog. Good to know everything is working then.
I'm a fan of Disqus so far, I'm quite happy with the service. I just logged in and found a great new widget too. I've just installed it in my right sidebar on my blog. Check it out.
Cheers,
Dave

Congratulations Scott! What an exciting opportunity. Although it was great working with you on the PodCamp Toronto MyooVooDay program, I know you'll have the chance to do lots of amazing things at Ford. You'll love the team at Social Media Group too. Maybe we'll even get to see you at a Toronto meet-up one day soon - it's only a hop, skip and jump from your new home.

in Twitter: One to How Many? on Chelpixie.com
I've definitely been there and I had to make the decision that Twitter (for me) was a place to hear from my professional network and what they are up to and at the same time I've also decided to cap the amount of folks I'm following to between 280-300.
I did a major 'cleanse' a month or so ago and it has seemed to help me focus my Twitter stream and get what I want out of Twitter.

in Am I too Lazy for This Social Media Thing? on Social Times
Anthony, thanks for the compliment about my blog :)
I think you are right in a way, there is such an enormous amount of content out there and it is constantly piling up, especially as we all have to do our 'real jobs'. I have found, for myself, that I go through these moments where it just all feels like there is too much and I cull my feeds, networks, 'friends', etc. I wrote about this a bit last week.
IMHO this is what is happening for even the average Joe who might not be as social media inclined. They start by subscribing to some feeds or getting on Facebook or even Flickr. Each day I'm seeing more and more people who are jumping into the fray, all age groups, mainly because they DO want an easier way to stay connected with human beings and not just the TV.
I'm enjoying your blog!
