The Praetorian Times: Interconnected: Why Playing Nice Seals The Deal
Well written piece from Dean, especially agree with this part: ”to be effective at social networking, and to become a player on every platform, you have to play nice”
I’m not sure we can handle another world-changing social network, but they keep coming anyway. And they keep going. But not all of them.
