Building your authority over the web is key.Invest in monitoring and listening in on conversations in blogs, social networks, twitter, etc.

The web used to be static and linear. Conversation flowed in only one direction because of the technology standard of the earlier version of the web.

Web 2.0 is dynamic. Content and form are separated. Information is liberated from its container and can be shared with others.

The Social Web and its tools continues to grow and evolve. How will you know which tools to use?
