There is so much information floating that it’s hard to sift through. So it’s refreshing to find a source that’s succinct & offers a lot of value. Brian Solis of PR 2.0 provides that.

The recipe is easy right?
Decide on a strategy & build a platform. Toss on some content & mix in some social media tools. And you’re done? ……. not quite! You’re missing the most important ingredient: the one that stirs it all together & serves it up. What is a recipe without a cook? (the [...]
