Here’s a brilliant collection of words and phrases to describe Social Media, as given to me by my very smart PR folks at my Social Media Strategy workshop run on behalf of the PRIA NSW within their Professional Development series:

virtual global ever-changing
multi-format global aspirational
risk intermediary accessible
immediate convergent online community
?credible evangelism growing
faddish open-forum word of mouth
sharing opportunity trial & error
human free uncontrolled media
independent destructive social networking
activism ?moderated consumer led
spirited terrifying agenda informing
viral peering open to exploitation
evolving lurking open to manipulation
addictive inevitable flat<–>hierarchical
inspirational confusing two-way conversation

 

Thanks, everyone, for a brilliant day and some spirited and eye-opening discussion!
