3 years into social media and I’m doing the conference circuit to get the word out about Web2.0. Would love to see some of you at the pre-conference workshop that I’m giving with Beth Kanter at the International Association of Facilitators Conference in Atlanta on April 9:

We are moving so fast to catch up with everything social that your post helps us stop and appreciate how far we all have come.

You're right, Chris -- there's plenty we *DO* know and could be sharing more. That's one of the motivations behind my proposed "social media speed mentoring" events (http://urltea.com/2kra), where social media newbies and experts can come together to teach and learn. More to come on this one!

Actually, Chris, today I am preparing a workshop with a group of “old school” journalists, whom I will teach about social media. I do that occasionally. None of them have profiles on Facebook or LinkedIn – they don´t know Skype og Twitter/Jaiku or any of the social media you mention. I feel so privileged to be able to “spread the word”.

Hey Chris – I loved your “take a moment and mark the progress” concept in play here. And thanks for letting me use your previous post to show my audience today about leaving a blog comment. Most of the c. 70 people had not done that before.

I’ve also tracked several good threads on Twitter (including you) re: about reaching out to others beyond the bubble/ beyond the choir. A group of us are looking at options. I’d like to actually develop a curriculum that could be shared and customized for select target audiences. I find so many businesses are wanting to know how this stuff works and how they can start implementing it.

Chris, I’m still learning – but I do know that I know more than a few people.

What am *I* doing? Offering to run courses and workshops for the community on the Black Isle, in the Scottish Highlands on Social media (‘kay, I don’t call it that).

And, of course like most everyone else above seems to, I blog about it.

@Gavin are you saying we are all Phoney Futzers?

Actually I read something once, said that some people always feel like they are fakes, when they are at the top of their game. But in fact, that is the thing that keeps them in check, the sense of “I must be such a fake” and wanting to know more makes your output even better. The minute you think you do know it all, especially in this area of emerging technology, is the very moment you are in danger of your ego overshadowing your work.

When I first started blogging I wrote a post saying that I felt like a fake — in that I was talking about social media and marketing and not really feeling like I had a solid grasp on how they worked together. A fellow blogger nicely reminded me that this is how it actually worked — that when things are new you have no guidebook to work from. And that even the most experienced folks make it up as they go along. That is part of the fun.
