		<description>Markets are going through major shifts related to advances in digital solutions and global access to low-cost resources.  Those companies that will thrive are those that will create new solutions which adjust to these shifted markets.  Just because a company survived last year and has a few bucks does not mean it will succeed in 2009 and onward.  It requires innovation to deal with these major changes, and only those companies that innovate will create returns allowing them to emerge as strong, viable competitors.

Hi Roland,
I fully understand your anger. If you see my articles I exactly feel the same! I think because the PR agencies you talk about (and brands and ad + media agencies I write about) act as if they really care.

In fact, most do not care at all or hate this new movement. Same goes for many traditional broadcasting and publishing houses. Deep in their hearts, they hate the disruptive forces that internet brings them. 

It makes them feel insecure, not in the know and to be honest: mostly it also demolishes part of their business models. 

I don&#039;t want to push pressure on you, but you and your generation is my biggest hope ;-) You know no world without internet. And probably don&#039;t feel any resistance towards it. So my friend, I hope you graduate within 2 days and will start working in marketing, media or pr and will make changes from the inside!!

It&#039;s in your DNA! Your Chigago PR agencies (and many others) only have a blog for the show! It&#039;s not part of their DNA.

Enjoy your graduation party !!!

Cheers

		<description>You know what makes me angry Igor - I took the time to proactively search out the blogs of the big PR agencies here in Chicago. I visited them all and commented on their posts. Not one single response or reply. 

If PR professionals, like myself, are going to claim dominion over social media, then we better start understanding what works. 

As for me, I&#039;m still in college (well I graduate in 2 days), but at least I can say I&#039;m learning. Thanks, as always.</description>
