Web 2.0 is turning the world on its head.
Five years back, my mom would accuse me of wasting time on the computer. Today, it's a different story. She just cant seem to get the perfect profile picture on Geni.com.
"What would Merlyammai think? Who took this lousy snap?"
Networking is the new 'in' thing. Get to know your family, your colleagues or some weird filipino who claims to have been your classmate in the 1st grade.
I happened to chance upon this video on how its affects the world of employer branding and recruitment.
I guess the message is clear for the rest of us. Network. Get the word
around. Web 2.0 has just created a parallel universe. Some of us have
missed the bus. There is a lot of catching up to do.
