"Why would anyone care what I'm doing?"  That's a common refrain from those who are trying to understand the benefits of FacebookTwitter and other social networking sites. One isolated entry may have no meaning for us, but over time these little snippets of information combine to shape and color our perceptions of our online friends.

At the 2010 Keller Williams Family Reunion in New Orleans, ActiveRain's Bob Stewart participated on a panel led by AR's Ben Kinney. Here's his response to Ben's question "what's the point of all these updates?"

John - I sure wish I had been there to hear the whole panel at Family Reunion. I hate that I'm missing it this year.  Bob and Ben are always so informative...thanks for posting.

John, thanks for the post. Engaging in social media is a viable part of our business. Despite its faults, this is the main reason that I still use ActiveRain as my main social media spot...

Helping you to help others live their American dream...

I agree with him. We are all connected and it helps us to understand our clients schedule. One day a client want to see some houses. I didn'tunderstand why she wasn't returning my messages. In the next Monday I read on her facebook page "Thank you xxxx for the nice weekend in NY". ;)

Thanks for posting the video. I'm a believer! Social media is a super way to stay 'top of mind' with clients and sphere, plus we can celebrate the joys of our friends' lives, and be there for them during the tough times.

JOHN:Thanks for sharing this video Being an artist I completely understood the analogy of pointillism to social media.  One dot is just a spot of color just as using only one social media but combine many and you now have a composition and better understanding of the people we are meeting and engaging in conversation.. Totally makes sense.

Makes a good point about how one piece might be irrelevant, but not in context of the whole.

John, I get it. There are lots of folks I know here on AR in a more professional light - then on FB or Twitter in a more personal way.
