Thanks so much for taking the time to do it! p.s. in video 2 it sounds like you're almost talking about branding yourself/ourselves (or a character) within these web. 2.0 sites? Am I sort of getting it? this comment is a little late, but I love all the videos and what you guys are doing with the tdc. Thanks so much for taking the time to do it!

I agree with your comments and have also pondered what is the best way to promote a product or service without that slimy salesman pitch and you have hit the nail on the head with the natural approach. I appreciate your insights. Cheers! Great videos Ed.

In environments such as facebook, the people have control over who enters and who does not. We want that control. The key is relationship building, and some IM'ers don't want to spend the time. Their impetus comes from the pocketbook, not the heart. If you give good value, you make contacts without having to be frantic about it (as I think you found out from the overwhelming response to TDC). Some of these contacts translate into customers because we all want to see our 'friends' be successful. And with twitter, it gives everyone the opportunity to follow along on you coat tails so they feel part of the 'gang' - thereby deepening the relationship. It all looks good! Thanks!

I remember when I was at university in the early 90s studying librarianship, the DOS to Windows transition was on and we all had to learn to use a mouse. This is no different and it's much more fun and interactive. Love the concept of being able to take my mobile anywhere and be able to work. Much more fun than have to sit at the same desk all day... Working from home, I quite often will go and work in the public library or a local cafe instead of looking at the same four walls. And it's great people are getting beyond the idea of "get rich quick". Much more satisfying you have done the hard work to get to where you are. Hope you enjoyed getting back to Beechworth. I have been there once for a family holiday...Like many other people we thought the bakery was fabulous. Happy landings in London...looking forward to the next exciting instalment. Cheers Catherine Hi Ed

It is not about how well it works seems to me that a lot of them are just looking for the fast buck and web 2.0 takes a little time and a little work from what I have learned in TDC. I am continuing to work the process I learned and will achieve the results I desire. By the way ED an alternate you can use when you need to say BS is El Toro Popo. Have a safe trip and I look forward to future lessons.

You have a way of putting technology into perspective from an every day practical use- point of view. A person can go numb from all of the new technology advances. It certainly is much easier to figure out how to use it and get it to work for you with the help of a community. Thank you and your team for being so generous and creating one. What will be fun down the road is to look back at the predictions about the social media - just like ones on the phone, radio, TV, personal computers, how much RAM we would possibly ever need, etc. I am looking forward to Mondays lesson. Kas P.S. Enjoyed the magpie and change of scenery! Ed thank you for sharing your insights. You have a way of putting technology into perspective from an every day practical use- point of view.

I finally see the light about Facebook (Twitter is still stupid to me, but I'm open to learn). As a psychology professor, I see the attraction for secure, relational space that a Facebook offers. Question: is there less need for traditional web pages? Or stick with combo strategy.

Always telling it like it is, which is what folks don't care to hear. Web 2.0 works for workers, not for lazy boobs who want the next cheap "get rich quick" scheme.
