There’s tons of stuff on the internet about web 2.0. This extract from Positively Glorius! is part of a very good article.

The basic point is that if you are there interacting with people, finding ways to help them, then the rest will fall into place. It’s not marketing, it’s involvement. If you tell me you can solve my problem, I may (but probably won’t) trust that you can and will. If you simply solve my problem or help me in another way, or even just connect with me on a personal level, I may (and probably will) trust you and continue to build a relationship. It may not lead to a financial gain from me immediately, or ever, but it will be a relationship. And those relationships are what will help you survive and grow.

The article talks about about some of the fears businesses have with interactivity on the web. Use this link to read the rest.

KFC

Everywhere you go people invite you to visit their website. Often you wonder why on getting there.

Dot co dot uk

The thinking had always been that a dot-com domain name was more credible than a dot-uk one.

Metro SE

We’ll be cooking our own food in restaurants next! Or making our beds in hotels!

My recommendation to people is, “Maintain your own web presence. Keep control of your own Internet identity.”

Providing your content to other sites like MySpace, Facebook etc is all well and good but where will they end up? None of us knows. Use these sites and share your ideas and opinions but keep hold of your own web presence as well.

It is also worth remembering that the majority of the world’s population don’t use social/business network sites or use RSS feed readers. I know, unbelievable isn’t it?
