Definitely important to keep in mind the many intentions associated with social networking -- not just numbers of people driven to a website.

It's so useful to hear the perspective of a participant. I did want to take this opportunity to a bit more context to your report out: ==> For the Kauffman Foundation's initiative, driving traffic to the campaign website was just one of several goals of the Twitter and Facebook channels. More important were creating conversations with and among those interested in entrepreneurship, and building a network to leverage for future campaigns. The Foundation is succeeding on both fronts. A great example, perhaps, of what these tools are best for? Back to blinded by the light. But at least there is light! Thanks again, Nancy Michael, thanks for such a thoughtful write up of the session. It’s so useful to hear the perspective of a participant.
