Thanks for the post Ryan.

Maybe I am missing something here, but between my Google Profile and Google Buzz conversations, might I not already have a Social Resume?

Also, I would be VERY interested in seeing the rate and timeline of adoption by hiring managers and recruiters/sourcers of Social Resumes. And, how do you capture the info on a Social Resume into one of those dinosaur-like things called Applicant Tracking Systems that everyone still seems to be using?

I LOVE this stuff- it's getting the culture transformation going which is the tough part.

That was our thought process behind the concept of our Social Resumes. Hopefully, you start putting them all on your Social Resume. As far as planning goes, I try to leave it at just jotting down notes. If you can't focus on what you're doing full time, its not going to work. The other ideas can wait.

@Suzy - Good points. Your Google profile and Google Buzz conversations are just like conversations you have on any other network, they get lost after a few days. Sure, people can really dig to go find them but that's a lot of work, and most people probably won't take the time to go past the first 1 or 2 links they see. I'm also very interested to see the adoption rate of hiring managers and recruiters etc. Obviously as the product matures, we'll need to address issues like capturing info in ATS's. We already have some thoughts but the real challenge now is to get the word out!

It's my old news background... hook you in with a headline. In a good way of course! :)
Great point on the celebs and sports writers. I follow Adam Schefter and I love when he says "Filed to ESPN:" He is giving us information that we normally would have had to wait until SportsCenter came on. I think he's a valuable tweeter... especially as a sports fan. He's also a trusted reporter and I believe has added value of those that are less accurate.

We all have people we follow as a guilty pleasure, I think. Rainn Wilson is hilarious. I know I'm not going to get something to add to a proposal, but it may be GREAT around the water cooler.

Thanks for adding your perspective, Patrick. Be well.

All I have to say is that I don't like the phrase: "...will drop you like a bad habit"

It implies that people will drop bad habits easily and we all know that that is not true in the slightest.

I like personal communication.

@Amber- You are right, the phone is evolving. We can do so much more than just talk on it. Your Dad makes a great point. I think that is what makes Skype so great. And yes, the iPhone's mobile video is GREAT. Calling people is still cool though. Especially when someone equally cool is on the other end! :)

@Michael- I like your point in the last paragraph. Very well said.

I do a lot of outreach to utility customers on a day-to-day basis and my personality/charm are never so highlighted as they are on the phone. Ya know what they say, "Smile when you answer the phone, the person on the other end can hear it." That is so true for phones but not true with text. Granted, I do work with a few younger, tech-savvy contractors who prefer to email or text which is fine by me. But the majority of the workforce right now is not so young and tech savvy. At least 30% of the customers and contractors I work with *despise* email and couldn't tell you what a text message is so I will stick with the phone. :)
