I think we (meaning bloggers who have been 'playing' in this new arena for a while) often move so fast we forget that we're looked to by others who are still newbies to the game. We enrich our communities in epic scale when we take time to engage with those who haven't been walking this path as long as we have.

You are definitely not alone. As Caitlin mentioned, a lot of people are just catching up with what’s available today.

Some of my clients are still struggling with the idea that the internet is a viable communication channel.

If we don’t know the history, struggle with present and can’t move fast enough for the future, I think it’s a challenge just to feel as though you are saying something relevant.

@Caitlin What a rich question for discussion!

I think we (meaning bloggers who have been ‘playing’ in this new arena for a while) often move so fast we forget that we’re looked to by others who are still newbies to the game. We enrich our communities in epic scale when we take time to engage with those who haven’t been walking this path as long as we have.

But my big question is this: if we're always challenging the thinking, then how to we teach anyone? As a social media rep for my company with a brand new team that are so green it hurts my eyes, I find it really hard to just throw them at the blogs that are THE thing to read...we need to give people all the basics before we ask them to jump off the cliff with us, right?</p> I agree with what Jason Tweeted without qualms.

Your blog, by the way, wasn’t eliminated from my reader and yes, I was already subscribing.

Rock on, my friend.
