One of the characteristics that I admire most in people is initiative & proactivity – people who are always moving the yard sticks & getting things done. Be careful, however, when you ask something of @davidalston because this guy can execute faster than you can think. Seriously.
So last night we were talking about some new features we have coming out that we are quite excited about. So we say to David, “Hey, you should do something fun to drop a few hints about some features in the new Radian6 release.”
He says, “let me think about it” as he heads out the door for the evening. A couple hours later, I open my laptop to find Johnny Cache (note the spelling) singing The Social Media News!!
Does this qualify as a social media news release?
