Is social media a fad, or the biggest shift since the industrial revolution? This video by Erik Qualman, author of “Socialnomics: how social media transforms the way we live and do business” hi-lights some very eye-opening statistics.
“It’s the economy, stupid.” – James Carville, 1992
“It’s a people-driven economy, stupid.” – Erik Qualman, 2009
It's incredible, to me, how much the numbers represented here have changed since its release. If they were staggering in Spring 2009, they are Earth-shattering now. Social Media (such as we know it today) has changed the way we do EVERYTHING. When my 60-plus-year-old in-laws are diving in, you KNOW it's become an integral part of the human consciousness. 🙂
