the dollars and cents behind social media

there's no doubt that technology & social media have both played critical roles in providing relief and support in Haiti -- the convince of sending financial aid via txt msg'n or other social media outlets allows us to start making donations hours after a crisis happens.
i dug up this video called socialnomics & wanted to share just how real this social media thing is...check it out
do you think any new artist today would be popular without social media?.. maybe a few but a lot of them would not be making much more then pocket change if it wasn't for social media ...
lets look a real life test case Soulja boy - he's a product of social media without it he might make a lil noise in his home town but probably would never get heard on a global level. To be honest 25% of Soulja boys annual profits should go back to Google (you tube) for putting him on..
