It is not so much a revolution but a rapid evolution and transformation. The growth of digital media, the convergence of paid, owned and earned media practices and the rapid growth and adoption of mobile and video have fueled change in the way we work in 2013.

What’s the next phase of Social Business? That’s the question I’m frequently asked. Without a doubt, the next phase is the Collaborative Economy. What’s that? That’s where brands will rent, lend, provide subscriptions to products and services to customers, or even further, allow customers to lend, trade, or gift branded products or services to each other.

I dont blame companies for using social media to promote their products especially if teenage to young adults is their target market. I get annoyed with ads on social media sites and often ignore them but for the most i dont mind liking a page for a company that I like. Its true everyone has a callphone and the majority of the population has a fine that can connect to social media sites. We can check in at locations add who were with a comment and a photo. Companies use social media because its low cost advertising and its also a great way to connect with consumers. I have never used google plus i must say i only use Facebook. I have Twitter but hardly use it.

Great comments Sarah and Rutu. There's no question consumers don't want more junk pushed at them, especially in the form of "old" marketing and advertising. If your content is truly high quality, many consumers will welcome. But it had better be useful, entertaining or because the delete button is one second away.

I love the term "socialnomics". It's one of those new words that just makes intuitive sense.
