PodTech:Dell Explores Social Media

January 24, 2007 · Filed Under Uncategorized ·  

This is a long, but very good
question and answer session
between Michael Dell and
bloggers at the recent CES. I
thought the session provided
great insight into how Dell is
currently viewing social
media, as well as its
evolution in thinking about
social media. Well worth the
time to watch.

It is clear that Dell is
serious about using social
media to connect with its
customers and improve its
business. It is also clear
that they are experimenting
and do not have clear answers
as to how to best leverage
social media yet.

I am certainly looking forward
to Dell\’s continued evolution
in this area, and hope that
Kalivo can serve them as well.
