50 Social Media Sites Worth Visiting

Brand Obama and Web 2.0

TS Aschenge
There is just so much history still being made right before our eyes, that it might be a bit difficult right now to actually gage just who has had the greatest impact upon whom; Social Media (Web 2.0) upon Barack Obama or the other way around. It really is hard to say who actually struck the first blow. Nonetheless, one thing is clear; a New Marketing Age has arrived, and Social Media is surely in the forefront. Brand Obama's effect upon the dawning of this new age will probably be underestimated for quite sometime, but the year 2008 will certainly go down in history as the incubator of an exciting and innovative era that gave birth to a different way that businesses engage with consumers, and how products are marketed around the world.

Concepts like Long Tail and Conversational Marketing, and the technology that brought The Cloud and Internet News into the forefront of the global marketplace had actually been in vogue for a minute now. However, it was Barack Obama the candidate, the brand, and the candidacy that really helped to usher all of these things at warp speed into the forefront of the New Age. While the groundswell of this innovation has actually dealt what may ultimately prove to be a fatal blow to the fledgling US newspaper industry, it has also saved a whole lot of trees. Thus already, it's easier being green!

The Obama brand is chic. It's smart and engaging. It is sure to demand a more professional level of customer service; in what promises to be an altogether kinder world that is more considerate of others. It's a brand that's all about youthful vitality, transparency, and the utmost integrity. It's all about hope and healing in the global village; and a new vision of marketing as a thoughtful discourse between consumer and brand. Take a moment to consider this brave new world when you market your products online. Here are 50 Social Media sites that can help your business get the conversation started.
