			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As the music portion of this year&#8217;s SXSW festival in Austin wraps up, <a href="http://blog.wired.com/underwire/2009/03/sxsw-bands-spli.html">a recent article in Wired</a> explores the use of social networking by many of the participating rock bands.  </p>
<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;I&#8217;m not sure it </em>[social networking]<em> hurts bands that don&#8217;t do it, but there&#8217;s no question it can help the ones who do,&#8221; said </em><a href="http://blog.wired.com/music/2008/06/former-head-of.html"><em>TopSpin</em></a><em> CEO Ian Rogers. And some networks (Facebook, Friendfeed, Twitter, etc.) reach not only interested fans, but also their potentially interested friends. &#8220;The connection to fans &#8230; turns a casual listener into a fanatic,&#8221; added Rogers. &#8220;It makes them marketers of your art, in many cases, since those fans are plugged into not just you but networks of other similarly-minded individuals.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote>
<p>If social networking can turn a musician into a rock star, imagine what it can do for your business.  Expand your &#8220;listener&#8221; base, build your fan club &#8211; <a href="http://www.kayneinteractive.com/contact-us/">Get Started</a> today!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[People are changing the way they communicate, moving away from email and towards the real-time, publishing format of social networks such as Facebook.  With  175 million users, it's easy to see where the buzz is coming from.  And as I watch the tweets coming from my friends on Twitter, I'm amazed.  Had I gone to Austin this week, I could have simply looked at my Twitter app on my iphone and found endless updates from fellow Tweeters about where they were eating, meeting and socializing.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><span class="drop_cap">L</span>ots of buzz is coming out about the <a href="http://www.sxsw.com/">South by Southwest Festival (SXSW)</a> in Austin this week, particularly on the interactive front.  One major topic is social networks which are being called &#8220;email 2.0&#8243;, at least according to David Sacks, founder of business social network Yammer who was quoted in a  recent <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/7942304.stm">BBC article</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">People are changing the way they communicate, moving away from email and toward the real-time, publishing format of social networks such as Twitter and Facebook.  With  175 million users on Facebook alone, it&#8217;s easy to see where the buzz is coming from.  And as I watch the tweets coming from my friends on Twitter, I&#8217;m amazed.  Had I gone to Austin this week, I could have simply looked at my Twitter app on my iPhone and found endless updates from fellow Tweeters about where they were eating, meeting and socializing.  It is truly a revolutionary way to communicate in real-time with an unlimited audience.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Social Networks are the &#8220;new way to communicate&#8221;.  Make sure your business or organization doesn&#8217;t lose out on opportunities and get left in the soon-to-be dark ages of email 1.0&#8230;<a href="http://www.kayneinteractive.com/contact-us">Get Started Today!</a></p>
