When you have the statistics and real case studies to show it is easier to "sell" it. Also what I'm really interested hearing is the risk management of social media for companies - again, another way how it makes it easier to "sell" social media to clients.

I find it difficult to present lasting information in a report that trys to speak to social media, most measures are hard to put into a framework that provides actions that can be taken for indicators of success. What would you tell a fortune 500 company about what happened in one month and predict how it will affect the next. What does one tweet or a blog post really effect sales? I've worked on emergency systems that R6 has for immediate actions which to me seems to be a totally seperate issue. What is the value of reporting social media, and how would you do it?

Oh! Pick me! I help design and execute dialogue-based civic projects. I work with communities, foundations, and non profits. I'm convinced that social media participation must increasingly be a component of that, but how, when, who and why are questions that are still being answered. Lots of us have lots of ideas but in the nonprofit/community sector we are always in danger of groupthink. While their experiences are not always diretly transferable, the learning of major organizations is always useful when thinking about how locally-based and self-organizing groups can get their work done. Large institutions may not always be where innovation is spawned (though sometimes they are) -- but they are very frequently a place where best practices are honed. [For example, modern-day "strategic planning" that so many nonprofits are deeply committed to grew out of efforts in the late '60s by GE and other large corporations to figure out (in the words of one CEO) how to "never be surprised again." This has been updated over the years, but the basic environmental scan and SWOT analysis has been a mainstay.] The requirements of large for-profits (to show a return on investment of time and resources, to stay safe, to compete) provide a good crucible for figuring out what works best for all types of organizations. I hope to learn a lot from this. Oh! Oh! Pick me!
