knowledge, co-
creation- tap into others

communities and marketplaces with the conversations
we have using social media?
• SM allows us to develop our ‘weak ties’ and reinforce
our ‘strong ties’ (social networking theory)
• Spread ideas through weak ties – world is small on the
internet!

processes
