There might be a slight game changer in pinterest. Involvement is driven by image ownership/curation that remains static as against update and activity discussion. I would call pinterest aspirational media, as against social. Its very consumerism driven. Stuff to think about. Thanks. Interesting thoughts.

I'd start by digging into who they are -- professionals, intelligent, efficient communicators. I'd take a short break and pull my socks up and then launch with a great new product -- the new bold is really nice -- I'm not sure the new Bold commercials really tell us that (and Blackberry Bold... be bold -- who wrote that copy?) -- they are way nicer than the i-phone, they look better, have the advantage of the key board. While the overlap of the phones and tablet are there, Apple has successfully convinced the audience that they are cool -- let them be cool. Let Blackberry be hardworking, slim-lined.... Apple is cool in khakis ,,,, Blackberry is sexy in a suit, brilliant in a lab coat, awesome on a tractor, brilliant in from of a computer.... We need the time to make that ads really, really good! Then stay consistent.... let the strategy play out for awhile. Don't try to be funny, don't try to be clever... be honest, be bold (ironic???), be business.

Although, it says something about a generation who claims it, doesn't it? Centering on ourselves is a human condition, not unique to any one particular generation!

We are a whole generation strong! Wait a minute... that should read "I" am a whole generation strong! Hey at least (we) have rejected elitism, though I am pretty sure I feel elitist for that.
