Chris Brogan knows how to ask a question
Chris Brogan (see blogroll) has sparked a good debate about categories of conversation with his latest post. More than anything, this is a great example of how asking the right question can lead to an outpouring of useful thinking. Chris seeded the debate by having a go at putting types of conversation into categories and then asking “Am I missing anything?”
How can anyone with an opinion fail to rise to that?
There are many companies out there who seem scared to ask open questions like that. Or like, “What don’t you like about our latest product?” Sure, they may conduct some surveys and bury the answers. I believe that the company who does it openly and who then responds and takes criticism both as valid and as input to the next iteration of their product line, will leave the businesses lurking in the shadows in permanent darkness.

I subscribe to one really important believe: there are several people who know much more than me, and I will take every chance I can to discover THEIR opinions, because I already know my own. : )
Thanks for the commentary and the pointer. I appreciate it.
