I have read my fair share of social media books, but I think this one is a good introduction for those who might be overwhelmed by all the terms and technologies that are being bandied about these days. Scott takes you through a good overview of how the media landscape has changed and how marketers (and, really, everyone) needs to shift their game in order to play in that proverbial level playing field we call the Internet.

I liked it, but maybe it's just a matter of when I read it as to how influential I think it is. Maybe if I'd read it a few years ago it would have seemed more radical, but so many of the ideas in it are things that are actively happening now that it didn't feel groundbreaking. I did like the sections where they talk about how companies are using web-based collaboration, but also wanted to see more examples of how other companies--big or small--might use tools such as wikis to excel. Glad to see their inclusion of customers contributing to a company's development process and where that is headed...we've only just begun! (less)

Most business books these days about social media are about the facts of how the web is changing consumer and company's interactions, but don't offer up too many ideas of how they can get in the game. Groundswell does a good job of being both informational and educational, giving suggestions of how a company (big or small) can start using social media technologies to participate in these conversations and close the loop between companies, consumers, and innovations. A very quick read, but one of the better books on social media I've read!(less)

I reread this as I was editing my interview with Eli "Paperboy" Reed for Well-Rounded Radio as he is a bit of a vinyl junkie as well. As someone who buys A LOT of music, but doesn't necessarily care that much about the format it's on (unless it's a really crappy mp3), it's interesting to read this book and try and find that line between having to have the music vs. having to have a collectible item. I will admit I've done the same for certain artists, but this is something of a psychological study of collecting without being clinical. Many of these folks even recognize their obsessions and seem to get that it's beyond being about just hearing and experiencing music, though I do think there is something to wanting to be as close to the original recording as possible, which most digital technologies seem to push the listener further away. Overall, a fun book for anyone into music or into collecting anything else. (less)
