Comments on: my best practice – conversation http://www.sonnygill.com/my-best-practice-conversation Shining Light on Social Media Tue, 24 Jan 2012 04:23:44 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Ricardo Bueno http://www.sonnygill.com/my-best-practice-conversation#comment-546 Ricardo Bueno Wed, 05 Nov 2008 08:42:26 +0000 http://www.sonnygill.com/?p=60#comment-546 Collaboration and knowledge exchange through conversation is important (reading and commenting on other blogs) but the exchange is only significant and insightful if it's genuine. As you suggested, "transparency gets picked up easily in social media..." It's easy to spot when someone is being disingenuous and that is a very quick way to amass a great deal of discontent towards who you are and the brand you represent.

From what I've seen, "best practices" is often really "what everyone else is doing so we'd better start doing it". They're often talking about standard practices, not best practices.

That's a great question. I think the community as a whole determines best practices for social media. With things being so new, a lot of us lean towards 'influencers' who live & preach the industry and practices day in and day out. Thanks for the comment Deb!

It helps me learn more not only about the blogger, but also about other commenters as an exchange develops. So my question is: Who determines what a best practice is and how does that practice proliferate? I would add to the comments section that asking questions is important.
