Markets are conversations

• Micro publication– Blogs, podcasting, vlogs– Decentralization of information gathering– Barrier to entry is talent– Audiences are up for grab

• Somebody out there is talking about you• Nobody can control the online conversation

“The cluetrain manifesto”, Doc Searls, David Weinberger, etc…“Naked conversations”, Robert Scoble and Shel Israel.

Customer is king(no kidding!)• People want to participate and have the

tools to do so.

• Trust in peers, not in marketing discourse.

• People can now force a company to change it’s path (Sony, Kryptonite, Broadcast flag, Vichy, Google bombs)

Google bombs

The world is flat

Thomas Friedman (NYT columnist)

“the world is becoming flat. Several technological and political forces have converged, and that has produced a global, Web-enabled playing field that allows for multiple forms of collaboration without regard to geography or distance - or soon, even language.”

http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/13.05/friedman_pr.html

Friedman’s 10 Great Levelers

1. Fall of the Berlin Wall

2. Netscape IPO

3. Work flow software

4. Open-sourcing

5. Outsourcing

6. Offshoring

7. Supply-chaining

8. Insourcing

9. In-forming

10. Wireless
