And I love that you're drawing a critical distinction here that is all too often missed in our fun little fishbowl. :) The tools are just the mechanism. Just the means. Some will stay, some will change, some will go away entirely. What's at issue is taking the *intent* of the tools and the means, and applying it uniquely to your business to further specific goals that are applicable to you. That's where the hard work is, of course, but it's the only part that really matters. The rest is just trappings. And the meat of the answer - the knowledge - is going to be different for everyone. Thanks for illustrating this so well. Cheers, Amber Naslund Director of Community, Radian6 Colin,
