Great article. I agree with your points but when people are taking about Social Media, I think they make confused themselves. I did the Social Media projects from most of the clients mostly small business and startups but after stating them crystal clearly that Social Media cannot bring the hardcore money from the 1st day of implementation, still they think it is used to drive money into their businesses. I am sure people think Social Media Marketing is another name of Social Media selling.

Web 2.0 is not “Social Media”.
You’ve conflated two unrelated concepts, Muhammad Saleem.

Web 2.0 means using Javascript to make ongoing server calls to update data objects already rendered on a web page.

Social Media are web sites like Facebook, MySpace, others, where folks set up their own web presence, typically a blog with comments, a friends board and connection to others they know through email or cell phone numbers through the web site servers databases.

Nice article! And some intersting comments with which I also agree. Main problem: A lot of brands or the responsible management members are still thinking in the old days mode. They just do not want to realize that successful campaigns of today are very different from campaigns that succeeded just a few years ago (before almost everybody was online, loves to participate and take action instead of just sitting beside listening). But that is another discussion;-)

One thing I would suggest to enhance the concept of samsung is that the best songs are not “only” featured on radio or in an ad-campaign but also get preinstalled on the new samsung phone as a rington. Just an idea…

You’re right on!

Most corps are still stumbling over themselves in accepting this reality but some are moving significant resources to social media marketing. We’re working with some corps to make this shift. ahainsight.com

Awesome article. Thanks so much Muhammad. Samsung's contest is a creative and fun example of how to engage users but in my opinion even they are not taking full advantage of the power of social marketing (especially the power of social networks). By driving Facebook, MySpace and Bebo users outside of the social networks to interact with the "F400 Share" promotion they are failing to take advantage of the viral features of social networks like friend invites and newsfeeds. I'll admit that I'm rather biased regarding this topic because my company (WildfireApp.com) has created an app that enables companies to run promotions that are automatically integrated with the viral features of Facebook, but I nevertheless thought it might be worth pointing out the potential for Samsung to make their promotion even more social, viral and cutting edge!
