In my presentation on Sunday to the IEEE Board of Directors on organizational social media, I got a great question from a member of the board, "Our organization is not like the others that you've worked with. We have many local chapters that we can't order around. How can we work with them to succeed in social media?".

If you don't count Orkut or Google Wave or Google Buzz, then it is Google's first try at dethroning Facebook. At least that is what all the stories say. Google vs. Facebook in that virtual steel-cage match--winner take all.
