I have been and active participant in the Social Net for almost 3yrs now.  I started with MySpace but never really used it, then I heard about LinkedIN on an Alaska Airlines flight to San Jose in 2007.  At first I reacted like most employers do and saw it as a threat to retaining my staff and tried to block access at the firewall.  Then a colleague Kevin Ells working in our marketing dept. started teaching me about SEO so I started embracing it a little more.  Then I read CrushIt by Gary V. and turned 180 degrees the opposite direction.  I started leading my company as an executive sponsor for the complete embrace of Web2.0.  We encouraged everyone to join and participate in FaceBook, Twitter, LinkedIN and our newly minted company blogs.  We did webinars, workshops and still do an occasional and informal lunch time learning hour to get people involved.  We have significantly increase our natural rankings for keywords related to our industry.  We appear on page1 as a natural hit for many of the most searched terms in our industry.

I have seen my personal attitude towards engagement and privacy ebb and flow with my other social activities and life experiences.  I don’t think it’s all or nothing, on or off.  For me it depends on business cycles when I am super busy and there is lots of sales or management related activity I am less engaged.  When I have more down time my activity spikes.  I think the same could be applied to what you may be going through personally in your family, marriage, raising kids, emergency or life altering events.  Being social on the net is just as dependent on your current life circumstance, mood and interests as it is in the real world.

Once a year ImageSource hosts a technology conference in Bellevue, WA., Nexus®.  This year the theme for the conference was 'ignite your information'.  Several independent blogs have been posted about the event by Jeff Shuey, William Higgins and Janalyn Voigt.  During the last day of the event I presented a keynote on Mobile technology.  The focus was the impact that mobile is having on retail business and how the successful use cases can help form a roadmap for Commercial business and Government to adopt mobile strategies.  The goal was to give the attendees a vision of how mobile devices can and will shift business operations by extending the reach of the workforce, enhancing brand visibility and providing access to information anywhere, anytime.  At the end of my presentation I unveiled a Mobile Tablet Device embedded with our flagship content and image management product ILINX® Content Store.  More information can be found http://ilinx.posterous.com
