As a college student and soon-to-be graduate when I think about the unfortunate situation with the job market I consider entrepreneurship and the possibilities social media hold. I would love to start my career in social media and when I read your points about freelancers and "fast companies" I get excited. When I think about these "fast companies" of creative thinkers collaborating together on projects and starting their own agencies with tools such as Google Wave and other social media and joining networks with others to form teams of various skills and strengths that provide unique work for their clients. Thanks for your thoughts and insights! Chris,

While I am still torn on the title of my book, it is now being envisioned as “The Social Media Playbook.” The goal for me is to help people understand the era we are now entering and enable professionals to maximize the effectiveness of their participation on behalf of the organizations they represent.

There is quite a bit to get done in the next 3 months, which is not a lot of time for 60,000 words - especially considering the problems I have with Repetitive Stress Injury, but it will be done. I will be revealing more details of the book very soon (within the week) along with my plans for leveraging the best practices of “social publishing” I have been researching, but I am torn on a few decisions we need to make, so would love to hear what you think is the most effective way to leverage social media in creating the book here in the comments, or even call me 408.834.0884 More urgently though, I am participating in a survey put together by David Brake of Content Connection together with entrepreneur extraordinaire Lon Safko to determine what you really know about Social Media and what you would like to understand more deeply.

In trying to define anything by what it is very specifically as some have tried to do, we restrict the possibilities for what else may be considered in that same light - in trying to define Social Media by what it is not as Robert Scoble did in comparing what is different today, we are being more expansive in allowing for new possibilities to emerge. In that this is an emergent term, I think it appropriate to more broadly define the term rather than trying to be restrictive, though many will disagree. In defining Social Media by what it is not, we make it easier for people to understand the concept by the comparison to other known things, but we also do not fully impress upon people the “greater significance” of why this is important. This is ok - really it is - for the 90% of society that may never fully participate in online communities or contribute to our greater social wisdom, they need not think of what they are doing in the same way we, the early adopters are - they only need gain the benefit and enjoyment from within their specific contextual frame of reference.
