If someone signs up for your email updates when you send one out, that person will receive it in almost every case.

Social media has never been driven by function and purpose. It's… well… *mostly* a mass media so far. We measure it (personally and professionally) quantitatively not qualitatively. It's mostly based on buzz and mass popularity.

Rohit may be the first person to have coined the term “content curator.” Heck, even MS Word kept flagging curation as a misspelled word. So curated content is not something new.

The only problem I've encountered is the trepidation associated with personal blogs. Right now we are shying away from use of personal pronouns in order to maintain a more formal business tone. It doesn't seem to hamper traffic, but I do wonder how a blog can grow in its readership if the personal connection isn't there.
