That's right. Now that we converse more than ever, and through so many means, it seems we do the advertiser's work for them. All the advertisers need to do is get the conversation started, or sustain it when it dwindles... kinda like your ideal party guest! We have tons of what I think people call 'touch points'. In theory, I can advocate something through Twitter, Blogspot, Facebook, MySpace, YouTube, review sites, and good old word of mouth (though in practice, I've never been inclined to set up a Twitter account and will abstain from doing so for a little while yet). Also, it seems that any campaign launched nowadays isn't be complete without an accompanying iPhone application... a comment brought to life by this interesting video installation which shows the download frequency of the top 200,000 iPhone apps...
