World Goes Micro

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009

Blogging, tweeting and other ways of personal service branding theoretically let any person in the world to become a widely known web evangelist, celebrity or a simply blogger. Finally they are respected in a big business world.

micro-worldAs Mark Penn wrote in Wall Street , Blogger is very important profession in US. And there are 452 000 of bloggers using blogging as their primary source of income.

Twitter has got Oprah’s syndrome: twit pics, twit jobs, twit gas, twit anything and anyone… Some discuss will this last for a long time ?

And here Mark explains the reason of this happening now:

The biggest trends today are micro: small, under-the-radar patterns of behavior which take on real power when propelled by modern communications and an increasingly independent-minded population. In the U.S., one percent of the nation, or three million people, can create new markets for a business, spark a social movement, or produce political change.

From web 1, web of information we finally moved to web 2 – web of relations. So it’s finally clear why we are here. And it’s clear why such service as FriendFeed will be important in future despite of it’s lack of functionality.

Even if we foretell the golden age of social media business let’s not forget about a concurrence. There are old big brands and companies which place in market you must respect and it’s going to be hard job to overcome them. But everything is possible with the bright idea and continuous work.
