I think part of the problem for these idea stoppers is written right on their business card: "IT consultant" or "Technology guru" Huh? What exactly is that? "Technology", social media, etc. is the text we now live from. The kids using "technology" don't call it that - it's just how to communicate... Does anyone regard email or blackberries as "technology" any more - or are they as ubiquitous as paper and pencil? "Social Media" is on the same path. It's not separate somehow, or a different technique for communication - it's part of the tapestry. Policy has to catch up. Ha!
