Does a company (or team, in this case) embrace every single blessed one of them, in the hopes (and/or fear) that a potential customer is usually the obscure social media software built by the software engineers in The Duchy of Grand Fenwick? Or does the company decide to stop the insanity and draw a line in the sand, effectively saying to its customers, "Here's how to reach us, you know how." and then wait to be contacted in what's almost a passive sense? A large organization, I suppose, can go with a more catholic approach to things, but a small or even a one-person shop is going to have to step back at some point and carve out one little piece of space, and then risk turning off possible future clientele. I wish there was a better solution to all of this -- is there? .-= Janet Gershen-Siegel´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/AdventuresInCareerChanging/~3/M5cwlxrLE4U/" rel="nofollow">April 29, 2010 Acquia Webinar</a> =-.
