Social media ‘chatter’ seems to be growing exponentially and the services capitalizing upon it are being launched, or accelerated, by the week.

25. February 2012
“Aloha” is an Hawaiian word used both for greeting, or leaving, someone. Aloha is thus a metaphor for both the opportunity and the angst about how to capitalize upon it.
