		<description>Brilliant post. I don&#039;t know about pooping, but it does seem like it with what people do when it comes to this. It always pays to put more into Social Media than just a tool to throw out messages and promotions, it&#039;s also great for starting relationships and building trust with people.</description>

		<description>Hey Andy,

Great post.  And so true!  I had real difficulty being myself when
I first came online last year, but now I have learned the basics 
I am more relaxed and can let my personality come through more!

When I first came online, I wouldnt have even left a blog comment
in case I said something wrong!! lol

And so many people on Twitter think it is just about tweeting links -
no conversation at all; their loss I suppose!

Thanks Andy for a great article!

		<description>I love the term &quot;social poop&quot;. Too many people see Twitter and other social media tools as an easy way to get the word out about their business. But they don&#039;t realize that while it&#039;s easy to follow a ton of people online, it still takes work to build relationships.

Great post!</description>

		<description>Hi there Elizabeth,

You&#039;re spot on! &quot;When you let go of the need to sell with every post, it’s easier to be yourself and channel some of that energy into connecting with your reader.&quot; 

Couldn&#039;t of said it better myself :-)

Thanks for making my head a little bigger.</description>

		<description>Andy, you&#039;ve used great writing skill to take something that I knew at some level already but you presented it with clarity -- and an attitude -- that brought it into focus. When you let go of the need to sell with every post, it&#039;s easier to be yourself and channel some of that energy into connecting with your reader. Thank you!</description>

		<description>This was a great read. I love the way you approached the topic. I am a newbie to the whole &quot;social media&quot; world and I certainly agree that there is a lot of poop out there! I especially loved your comment about being yourself. I read a lot of design/craft/art blogs and the part I like best is feeling like I am getting to know someone with similar interests. Great advice... so glad I found this website!

		<description>Cynthia, 

I know exactly what you mean about the posts. I can literally spend 2 days writing thinking about and writing a post and get nothing but the sound of crickets in the comments. Then I can knock a post out in 20 minutes and get instant conversation.

It&#039;s funny how that works.</description>

		<description>Great analogy between poop and spam!  I&#039;m totally with you on that.  

I&#039;ve only been active in social media for 8 months and watching the landscape as a newbie is interesting.  Forging my path in social media is equally interesting.  My initial motivation was to promote my e-commerce site, but I&#039;ve gotten the &#039;bug&#039; and now social media has its own place high up on my list of priorities.  

The biggest challenge for me initially was engaging the conversation with my readers.  I created an &#039;Ask Dr. Bailey&#039; section to my blog which really got things going both for me and my readers.  Readers can submit skin care questions and I&#039;ll create content from them. Topics can also come from comments people send.  It&#039;s interesting to see which posts stimulate conversation, they aren&#039;t always the ones I expected people would find the most interesting or that took me the longest to create.
