Eventually, every company will have to work with the winning social network firm or firms, just as almost all companies work with Yahoo! and Google.The social network firms have superior access to talent, polling, research, and create a platform for the most targeted advertising on the net with messages aimed at the exact the demographic, title, and industry the advertiser wants to reach.
