We are in a scenario where the mobile connectivity is demonstrating that it’s a real alternative to reach customers. There connectiveness is more important than targeting or retaining customers, now touching emotionally is the new CRM.

These days it seems that everything has become social. We have social media, social gaming, enterprise social networking, the social web and the list goes on. It seems that social has taken over our world, but has it really? The very fact that we use this word simultaneously with so many different types of applications means we're only at the verge of maximizing its real value. The truth is that we've always been social.
