Great post for people in online business looking to cash in on social media and keep tabs on where their information is being shared and if the comments are negative or positive.

Great article, Dave.  I like how you broke down the various types of engagements opportunities for companies that apply to several functions within a company (i.e. online complaints = for customer service, point of need = sales opportunity, influencer engagement = PR, etc.)
