I’ve watched the Kramer interview on the Today show about 15 times now. You know the one. The one where he says, “take all your money out of the stock market.” The one where he says all of this while looking like he’s about to cry. If you haven’t seen it, you must check it out: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27045699.
His cautionary words have me thinking twice about what I’m reading on my Twitter feed. Lots of folks shrugging off the economy, writing blog posts about social media and it’s affect on business and providing information for those laid off.
It seems to me that this is insanity. While social media has opened new doors and opportunities, we can’t expect this new form of communication to be a save-all.
If anything, I hope we can all use these social tools to receive all the latest, greatest information needed to navigate through this troubling time.
