Communication Technology Today

Without a doubt new communication technologies has transform the way we communicate with each other. But I want to highlight something else, the way it has transform the way retailers and big business communicate with us. You can order a pizza online for god sake. Businesses of all creeds have blogs and twitter followers, for example, the makers of Pampers have a blog that talks about what else, pampers. Enterprises small and large alike are using social media to monitor conversations about themselves, monitor their own industry, provide emergency updates, gain customer feedback, drive traffic to the company's web site, recruiting the best talent, attracting new customers, and inciting interest for the company's brand. So just how important is it for businesses to get into the social media trend? Statistic shows "25% of search results for the world's top 20 brands are links to user-generated content", further "34% of bloggers post opinions about products and brands." Clearly, there's a correlation between the two. The question is how to utilize social media to get the best bang for your buck (for lack of a better term..they all free for the most part). There's thousands of web site online that answer that question.
