I do understand that it gets on to people’s nerves when you try to sell your product at social networking sites. But from te marketer’s standpoint, this is the latest tactic available with him.
I still have mixed feelings about this.

I will send this url to every client I have. Or maybe a collection of such articles.

But again, ‘marketing’ is about business, customers, and no free lunches. So when you think from a social media participant’s pov, this is what it is, But when you are int he marketer’s shoes, the vision is different. I might need to ponder again.

Completely agree. However, when we go to parties we DO like to talk about ourselves – our families, our hobbies, our work, books we’re reading, movies we’ve watched, topical news we caught…

The difference being it’s natural to talk about oneself while being reciprocal with the others in the “party” conversation, not forced like interruption marketing you’re referring to.

I’m too boring anyway.
