Messy usually comes off as a negative, but does it have to be? After all, some of the best ideas come from random brainstorming sessions, and sometimes a jumble of thoughts turns into an excellent blog post. Chris points out the multitude of new tools and additions to the crowded social media landscape this year, all there to help us sort through the mess while appreciating what it has to offer us. “The point of all this thinking and what-iffing and wondering aloud to a group of people who are no doubt shrugging or clicking past me by now is just this: we are creating something more than the individual bits of information that we spill out into the Internet. It’s ours to shape, to make into larger, more meaningful, more impactful things. But we have to think of it in those ways first to do so.” [...] [...] Scatterbrainy Chris Brogan Admitting that his previous few posts had been a bit all over the map, Chris Brogan points out that like life, social media can be messy.

So many people talk strategy and tactics. After watching David Weinberger give his keynote, I realized that there is a more "meta" question that needs to be answered/understood/talked about/thought about. How we are connecting through these channels is very different from the technology that allows us to connect (which is, indeed, a little messy ;) You wrapped the ideas all up nice and purdy with a bow on top - thanks (as always) Chris.
