@MJ – Great point about the headline. I wanted to highlight what I believe will become a bigger problem

@Bob – Exactly, it is about education. Unfortunately, people are also trying to do what is easiest and are open to alienating a few to reach the masses.

I agree. As Facebook, Twitter, etc. become markets where unfamiliar users venture, we will see more of this. The challenge is separating lack of education about the media from intent. New users too often don’t get the coaching or training to appropriately use the media and don’t realize the reach they are given.

I totally agree with what you say, but not your headline. Email & event marketing do work, but people need to follow the guidelines you have correctly identified. Thanks N
