Over at Forbes, Neal Rodriguez takes a look at 10 Myths About Social Networking. I’m always happy to see anyone separate the smoke and mirrors from the meat and potatoes, but I don’t know about some of these myths.
Take #6, for example: “Social media can replace your website.” Who’s suggesting that? Or #5: “Social media is solely a broadcast channel.” Really? Anyone perpetuating either of these myths should have their web access revoked.
I love myth #9, though: “You have to be on every social network.” Hell, no. Or #8: “Blogging is a waste of time.”
Thanks for watching my back, Neal.
