I think that if you can touch 2 or 3 people in a day online, you're doing very well. How will people, who do not know Leo, connect with him if he does not at least announce his latest ideas (always welcome) on social media networks? It seems self-defeating, in every sense. By the way, talking about expression of ideas, have you seen the talk by David McCandless (TED Global, Oxford) that has just been posted on the web? Worth a look.http://bit.ly/9GLv42 Agreed, Jon and thanks very much for the thoughts. I think that if you can touch 2 or 3 people in a day online, you’re doing very well.

There are probably a handful of people on the web whose every utterance is awaited with eagerness. There are many millions more whose output will fall somewhere in between "interesting" and "thoroughly disposable". And not everything the leading bloggers/Twitterati have to say is necessarily memorable. It's a tough task to be wonderfully insightful with every keystroke. But, amid, all the cacophony, there's a chance you might be heard by someone who is taken by what you have to say. Crying over Google Buzz seems a bit much...
