2010 Social Media Prediction Report Card
Last year I did like every other social media blogger out there and made some predictions for 2010. I actually posted two different sets of predictions.

What does your job title say about you? Mine says I’ll be out of work soon.

What Does the Future of Marketing Organizations Look Like?
Here’s some images I pulled from a rough draft proposal I’ve been working on. I’ve really been taking a look at how should communications organizations be structured moving forward and what are the processes that need to be developed? I’d love your thoughts.
