I am currently working on developing new media strategies with a number of organisations. For a couple of them we are trying to create a single online conversation with the customer – combining Facebook, Myspace, LinkedIn, ning, forums and a hundred other social networks. The aim is to create a virtual ‘über’ social network so that all of the individuals interested in an organization can interact regardless of the specific social network they prefer to use.
