Let's take a look at a few recent emerging trends. Google is rolling out Author Rank. This favors giving search authority to authors who have built up a reputation for quality content. Facebook is rolling out Graph Search.
Frank J. Kenny's insight:

So what does this mean for you? As a company, start thinking about platforms in your recruiting. Imagine two employees of roughly equal capability, but one has a platform. They have a social community of peers that goes with them. Who is more valuable? All other things being equal, the one with the platform is more valuable.

Association Software Dashboards. The What. The Why. And How to be Successful. - Membership Sales and Retention | WebLink International | Social Media for Chambers | Scoop.it

Recently my family and I were invited to a friend's house for breakfast. One of them asked if I would be writing another blog post for WebLink. I mentioned I would be writing one on dashboarding…silence…blank stares...I decided more information was needed.


As I paused and searched for the best way to explain what I was writing about I asked myself whether or not this even applied to him; he’s a professional photographer. It did. In fact dashboards and the use of them apply to all of us. I explained that dashboards exist in almost every device we use.
