Marc Wright of simply-communicate.com has written an interesting profile of Toni Muzi Falconi. This is a small world moment for me as Marc is one of the speakers at a forthcoming MIPAA workshop: The New Influencers – and Toni of course, is the originator of PR Conversations, which is my second blogging home.
In PR – especially online – it often seems that everyone knows everyone. So we’re either all connectors, or there really are no degrees of separation here.
In Scotland everybody knows everybody else anyway but social media doesn’t appear to have been grasped to a great extent yet. At job interviews a throw away comment about who you’ve met before perhaps can result in being told that person’s full name and where they currently work. A small village indeed. All the more reason to create a memorable footprint wherever you step I guess.
You are right Jill that many communities are “small world” – social media extends that small world globally but again maybe with limited number of players who can still all know each other.
