I do not know, as in Ireland, but in Russia Chevy Tahoe is very popular. Do not find another car, so roomy and comfortable. And if embarrassed cost of gasoline, we have it peredelyvayut food methane.

Looks like it’s an odd one, some people are getting the spam, others aren’t. Trying to figure out a solution, need a Wordpress upgrade and a script apparently

Comment on Credit Crunch - The Herd Isn’t Always Right by Gerard O'Neill

Sure some people took their money out of the banks as a result of the Joe Duffy show - but others were taking it out BEFORE the show and so were others afterwards who hadn’t heard the show. Oh I nearly forgot: 7 banking days later two of our largest banks nearly went belly up due to foreign speculation that they were experiencing severe bad debt problems. It wasn’t because of Joe Duffy. Maybe the crowd were right after all …?

Tis a fool that considers “much heralded wisdom of the crowds” a good path to follow. The whole Duffy incident stinks of Janis’ theory of groupthink.

Comment on Participate - Social Media Marketing Best Practice by Paul Matthews

I definitely agree that participation is crucial if you are to be taken seriously in social media. Often, I find, people/organisations are intimidated by the very nature of social media so sit and develop the best strategy for diving right in.

I’m sure you agree Piras, and no doubt you have suggested to your readers before, participation doesn’t necessarily mean plunging in boots and all. Individuals/companies get hung up developing the perfect strategy; I don’t believe there is a perfect social media strategy.

Rather than waiting to execute the perfect strategy, one should begin by dipping in ones toes, developing the strategy along the way, perfecting it through participation.

In saying this however, it’s all well and good to preach participation; like the EA example though, it is important to participate relevantly.
