The Cluetrain Manifesto from 10 years ago at how the web would change marketing.

Google yourself and your brand.
Set up Google Alerts to stay informed. Use search.twitter.com. Create tags and track them across social sites. #pch08 twitter and flickr.
Second: Stop shouting.
Interruption marketing and shouting, via banner ads, pre-roll video ads, popup ads, etc. create negative associations with you and your company.
Third: Listen
How and where do you listen? Have a blog, allow comments, respond to them.
Participate on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.
Fourth: Build a community by focusing. Tech makes it possible!
Your power comes from the community.
Build a network like The Reef. Jason VanOrden Podcast
Build your email list. Give people a way to interact with you.
Blog. Podcast. Use internet video (post messages and specials via viddler, etc.)
Tag your stuff. Ask for feedback. Dell: IdeaStorm.com = build the site then let users post suggestions, discuss them, then vote up or down. Free marketing R&D.
How do users find your new web content? Can they see the forest for all the trees, or do you rarely plant new trees?

Search engine built-in to your site for users. (Included with blog software.)
