As I commented on the post: Great post: I think the next step may be companies being more proactive in asking how they can improve the user experience. It's fine for a company to say "We're no worse than the other guy." However if the other guy decides to get a great deal better, the competitors will never catch up. That's the way a company really can grow in all senses of the word.

I definitely think social media is going to become more and more mainstream over the next year or two. Look at the difference between Obama and Clinton's campaign for one example... Obama has leveraged social sites well and while Clinton's campaign seems to know they need to be there, they don't quite get it.

I think social media is here to stay and marketing through that medium is a natural progression.
