Comment on Do hoaxes and fear tactics have a place in social media? by Matt https://www.writersbloc.net/2010/10/05/do-hoaxes-and-fear-tactics-have-a-place-in-social-media/comment-page-1/#comment-72 Wed, 06 Oct 2010 15:09:20 +0000 http://www.writersbloc.net/?p=484#comment-72 Hey Antoine,

That’s what businesses do. Some of us don’t mind a little professionalism with our game distributors.

The bottom line is, they took the path of selling our their current customers to cause drama and attempt to cast a wider net to get new customers.

I’d say it succeeded.

It doesn’t mean I won’t spend my money there – they are, after all, supplying me with something I want.

It does mean I’m not going to pimp them out anymore, or word-of-mouth advertise for them. It appears they have all the business they want now.

It’s boring, formal and force-feeding people information. What really happened was spontaneous, mysterious, exciting and unpredictable – like most good things in life.

They could have made something obviously fake, like an evil corporation mastermind (Marcin in a business suit laughing maniacally) coming in to ruin everything for everyone, making the GOG employees look like heroes, but never pretending for a moment it was anything but a cartoony battle, so people who had only heard about it periforally might have thought something serious was going on, but any investigation into the claim would have revealed this as an obvious stunt, thus reducing the impact. They would not have lost loyal people, which would mitigate any strategic losses in overall increase in profile they got from this much more controversial and counterproductive.

Comment on A modest proposal for social media: Cross the streams! by marianne https://www.writersbloc.net/2010/03/18/a-modest-proposal-for-socialmedia-cross-the-streams/comment-page-1/#comment-38 Wed, 24 Mar 2010 20:20:55 +0000 http://www.writersbloc.net/2010/03/18/a-modest-proposal-for-socialmedia-cross-the-streams/#comment-38 Brilliant observations Dave and and prescient considering the explosive and continued growth in these applications. Research tells us that most participants are not really that but merely spectators. So, the ability to timebox my exposure to certain feeds with segmentation is a winner.

Another advantage would be the additional behavioral information gained from observing when and what users stream away from their center of attention.

Excellent post and I’ve sent it out to my various streams.
