  Groups and Subsets

  good point about Twitter - I walk a line between the Scoble approach of following (not all) most of those who follow me (except the ones that are just companies pumping out pr) and a more "only peeps I really want to talk to" approach. I'd like to be able to scan the contributions of the jowyangs and your good selves, without some of the noise from some others. And agree re FB

  Welcome and What It's About

  Thanks to everyone for joining. I was excited to see that Tangler had set up a forum offering (beta, so let's not be too tough if everything isn't perfect overnight).

  I'd been getting a bit overwhelmed by so many Web 2.0/ socmed / socnet products, initiatives, dramas, etc and wondering how to get a sense of what was actually workable and usable and could be recommended confidently, to businesses, governments, non-profits, as tools or processes that could be helpful to them now, in terms of improved productivity, culture-building and cultture-maintenance, marketing, customer feedback, etc etc.

  A filter seemed like a good idea - Filter 2.0 - so we can collectively screen out some of the noise and come up with some useful info. (Hm, just thought of the coffee shop connotations of  "filter")

  So I've sent invitations fairly selectively, on the basis that we could have here a mixture of people who meet one or more of the following criteria:

  * genuinely interested in the subject (beyond just curious)

  * know what's happening

  * good at explaining tech stuff to non-nerds

  * fun to spend time with
  
  Maybe we can expand that later, but it seems like a reasonable place to start.

  Given that sort of configuration, please feel free to invite others to join us.

  DIGITAL MARKETING

  Enterprises that have been wary of social media taking some inhouse, behind the firewall initiatives?
