I certainly do not support the Draconian position that somehow social networks threaten email’s existence as a marketing channel. Will you spend some time thinking about how to integrate your social messaging, not building a throne for it?

Yet, in much of my social media consulting work corporate blog owners are invariably most interested in total visits and RSS subscribers. This is especially misplaced with group written blogs, where the broad content focus and inconsistent tonality makes RSS subscription less likely.

Seth Godin predicted that RSS would kill email. Well, it’s certainly weathered the wooden stakes of pundits and the introduction of IM, RSS, Skype, MySpace, Facebook & Twitter quite well. In fact, it’s quite telling that every single social network still requires members to sign-up with an email address. October 2007.

I think twitter is more of a heavily curated rss reader/feeder rather than a portal, and I suspect that presenting twitter to new users as more of a friendly way to use rss that as a way to push conversation with strangers would help quite a bit.
