micropersuasion.com — Steve Rubel: "I have recently witnessed a disturbing trend. Some respected experts are advocating launching social media marketing programs solely for the purpose of influencing search engines, rather than with the intent of fostering collaboration. This represents a clear and present danger to the fabric of the community.

Ha, ha, Thanks Kelly. I almost thought he was reading my mind, too. (only several months or so late)I am absolutely here for fun too. I hardly even use the bury button anymore.I've come to accept or at least tolerate at well-conducted social media campaign - as long as its just that - well conducted.That means community- or- demographically appropriate content, a non-misleading or sneaky approach to the content's goal, and not abusing friends -or- social media contacts solely for the promotion of content that's only commercial/SEO in nature -- i.e. when it's done well, creatively, or cleverly and only when it's submitted SPARINGLY.I try to digg as much of my friends content as I can, but with as much as there is and only so much time in the day, SEO spam just jams the tubes. Too much of it hitting digg's homepage dilutes digg's relevance to the users who care about it. Every time I come across some story like some corporate health-care blog that my grandma would be reading, I try to imagine Kevin and Alex sipping beers on diggnation talking about it. That's my "test" Not just whether one of my friends submitted it and others are "falling in line". All in all it's about quality content, friends, and participation. Just my $.02

"Some respected experts are advocating launching social media marketing programs solely for the purpose of influencing search engines, rather than with the intent of fostering collaboration."This is absolutely nothing new, though. It's the job of a SEO to exploit engine algorithms.

Nice post, social marketing is very effective.

Meh, social media gets you so far, then the footprints will kill you. If you just focus on one tactic, you'll eventually devolve into spamming, without necessarily noticing.
