This is when engineers, designers and developers will truly connect with the people they are creating products for. That being said, I think you andAri make a great point. Anything that can be done to make ALL reviews searchable would be a big step in the right direction. Shannon – the real magic will come when there are no “social media types”.

And as someone who is an engineer and, on the same time, studying marketing, it is remarkable to discover that both are usually aiming the same thing, although using different languages! About which products could use more socialization. mmm … It seems that the trend in marketing now is to target customers in more personalized approach. For that, almost every business could use socializing to gain more of its customers’ attention and loyalty.
