The Power of Social Networking

Post by Dan Scheinman, SVP and GM, Media Solutions Group

Just a quick note to demonstrate the power of social networking: Shortly after giving my talk at the Web 2.0 Summit, I had this note waiting for me on NHL Connect, one of the social networking sites I’m active in, and a partner running an early version of the Community component of our Eos platform:

"I was in the audience for your high order bit at Web 2.0. You asked audience members to email you or find you on NHL.com and I discovered that it’s easier to join and contact you here than to find an email address through the Cisco site. :-)"

Imagine when social networking is packaged with video content all the way to your TV! If you haven’t had the chance, check out http://fans.nhl.com.
