Apparently AT&T thinks that it's clients, or potential clients are too dumb to understand the recent Verizon Ad.

AT&T doesn't claim that the information related to 3G coverage is wrong, but rather that customers that view the ads are too dumb to understand that it is only referring to 3G coverage, and not coverage in general. Read the PC World article

It amazes me how a company like AT&T can even speculate that the ad is "misleading" or that their customers are "too dumb" to understand it. It looks like Verizon will be getting lots of free press for this one. Great timing for Verizon on the verge of Droid, their new Android-based phone.

Over the last several months, I have been investigating social media and its use for business. As a user of facebook for several years I find myself intriged by the numerous ways that businesses can use to communicate with current and potential clients. As social media evolves to become today's prefered communication, many questions have been posed about its effect on today's youth. A local TV station recently aired a segment on the topic.
I find that I am able to communicate with customers in ways that were only once dreamed of. I am able to get direct communication from my customers without the use/waiting of e-mail. I believe that services like twitter offer more frequent communication points with customers.

I encourage you to consider the usefulness of social media for your business. Don't take my word for it, read what Duct Tape Marketing has to say about it in "Let's Talk".
