However, I do believe big business should be congratulated for continuing to make attempts.

I think we see the same future. :) I think that's the crux of the dilemma, Pete.

Helping large organizations figure out how to make it work will be where the significant change comes from, IMO. I think we see the same future. :)

So far, we know social media is good for individuals. But companies haven't yet figured out how to create and capture value beyond having their own individuals participate.
