Yes I understand. But I suppose that’s up to you to set the boundaries. Sometimes I’ll tell people, I’ll take 5 minutes to look at it but if it turns out it is take me more than 5 minutes then… state your terms or send them to the nearest shop.

ON teh flip side, as a computer tech, it is quite annoying goign to parties, family gatherings… and being harrassed about tech support issues. Can you just stop by, I know it is only 5 minutes for you…

Hah! I totally understand what you mean about looking like a genius sometimes. It really isn’t hard to do.

The point about more relevant forums is right. Sometimes, a forum full of geeks may not be the right type of geeks

Recently the new projects I have been working on have required a lot of research on my part and I really cant tell you how much I have been able to learn by using online forums and blogs. I look like a genius at work sometimes and it all because of the research I do online.

Good tips. I especially agree that forums are a great place to get answers to technical problems. Forum members are usually very helpful people who don’t mind lending a hand. If you can’t find the answer to your problem, try posting it on a relevant forum and see all the advice you’ll get. Keep in mind that every forum is not equal. If you don’t get an answer through the first forum, try finding a forum that is more relevant or that at least has more members.

That is true. For me, the social network is great for market research and getting insight from customers and prospects. Some people pay through their nose to figure out what their customers want. Also, by involving customers in testing out say an order process, or just about any issue really, it tells them you are listening to them and really that’s what most customers want.

This is very good and very helpful post. You are one hundred percent right that the most of us are just stand-alone-complexes that need some help from outside. And looking for answers is not always that easy as it seems.

Thanks for the posting.
Social networking is there for a reason. Not using it to push your business but to ‘just see what’s going on’ would be a waste of time.
