Brightkite is an interesting tool – and pretty new. Looking forward to seeing it come together…

Keep in touch,

Good stuff. I had not heard of Brightkite yet thanks for pointing that one out. I agree with your suggestions for the use of LinkedIn and RSS.

For about a decade (seriously, I started selling in 1995) I wondered what the difference was between networking and sales. I think about 2 years ago I saw that you are absolutely right there is NO difference. It is all one network. I’d throw marketing into that bucket too. In a “Sales 2.0 world”, sales, networking and marketing all come together.

Thanks so much for this post.

Nigel
