Comments for Monica Yoo http://www.monicayoo.com Hi. I'm an enthusiastic internet marketing consultant, new media advocate, a strategic thinker, a tech junkie, a native Houstonian and the founder of Bubblevine.com.

I think I'll be making frequent references to it when the topic of moving to Houston comes up. =) Laban, that was one of the most refreshing comments ever!

I found that the people of Houston, not the tourism, are what make living in Houston worthwhile (except for the guy who stole my laptop... the dogs of karma are hunting his ass down). The people of Houston are unique in a very great way and the friends I've made out here in such a short period of time are second to none. If my kids didn't live here and I had the opportunity to move back to Florida, it would actually hurt now to rip myself away from so many great people. And while a lot of what people outside of Houston say and think about Houston is true, there's a lot they fail to see or understand, too. But nobody here really cares what the outside world thinks and I LOVE that. I, too, hated the idea of living in Texas, despite having family that live out here, especially since I lived in Florida!

In Scoopville, tools of mass production created multiple niches thus creating a long tail. In the mean time they also pushed the head further down, thus increasing the sales of Big Icecream. Monica, you have an interesting blog out here :) In the context of the video posted here, I can see this as one more manifestation of “Long Tail”.

This is where it's necessary to educate them about how marketing is transitioning into a more interactive direction. I don't think traditional marketing methods need or should be abandoned, but instead supplemented with modern approaches. As we all know, the field of marketing evolves and will always continue too. Keep up or be left behind.

However, on the smaller level, my publisher has seen good results with blogs and you tube. I enjoy the blogosphere and connecting with my readers but on a greater scale, I don't know if this would be possible. www.bentpage.wordpress.com. Still, very informative and interesting post.

I have listened to a number of Fortune 500 companies talk about social media and they seem to have the "Wait and See" attitude. I think that while it certainly makes sense for them to adopt new methods they want proof that it works before abandoning alternative marketing methods.
