[Commentary] As an early adopter of social media, I am continually evangelizing on the benefits of the "soft-art" of pr vs. the hard science of selling. It is sometimes difficult to convince others of the importance of information and its distribution and communication across the variety of platforms available today. The Egyptian crisis will be remarkable in history due to its significance to the world but also in its obviously real-life demonstration of the power of information. If you are a "Flintstone" in social media, it is time to become a "Jetson."
