Debbie, oh yes definitely. We are evolving as a market… from that of uncharted media to that of a potentially profitable one. What do you think will happen to the Social Media space in the next 5 years?

Hi Pat, correct me if I’m wrong, but I seem to be seeing more advertisement and sponsorship deals for the top bloggers in the region, compared to, say, 1-2 years ago. More companies are also actively engaging bloggers as part of their PR efforts. I’ve seen more than a handful of IT companies hosting blogger sessions for their new product launches.

Great advice, Pat. I’m glad you raised Point No. 8. A lot of brands make the mistake of treating bloggers like spam bots, but we also have lives! It’s sad that most bloggers are only contacted for their brand-whoring skills.
