Is a blog still important in 2011? Last week I was speaking with a ‘social media pro’ who informed me that I shouldn’t bother with blogs as its all Quora nowadays. At first hand it’s not such a silly statement – may people instinctively believe that the volume of blogging has fallen massively since 2007 at the expense of the shiny toys of Twitter, Quora, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn etc. If all the conversations are happening in other channels why should we bother to blog at all?

Kirk Originals Eyewear - London Flagship Kirk Originals eyewear company opened its London flagship store on Conduit Street in the West End this week with a swanky launch party. London-based Campaign designed the pared-down, dramatic retail environment of the 66 square-meter boutique.

Chaque entreprise présente sur le net a (en principe) envisagé une stratégie de visibilité et de présence sur certains canaux. Certaines matraquent parfois l’internaute et abusent de techniques de seeding et d’undercover Marketing , tandis que d’autres ne se soucient pas de ce qu’il se dis sur leur marque que cela soit en bien ou en mal.
