4.0 out of 5 stars One of the better ones, October 3, 2008
This review is from: Connected Marketing: The Viral, Buzz and Word of Mouth Revolution (Paperback)
There are a lot of social marketing books out there (believe me I have read alot). This one is one of the ones that stands out. Not only does it cut through the hype of online marketing, but it also gives you examples and case studies to read.

Like I said it is one of the better ones out there.
