Ideaviruses
from the um...-that-sounds-like... dept
A good article by Seth Godin (of permission marketing, and Yoyodyne fame) about the concept of Ideaviruses. Um... Seth, have you ever heard of a meme? Yes? Okay, the "ideavirus" is the same thing. Anyway, if you discount Seth thinking he's discovered something new which makes him totally cool, and then just read it for content, it's still quite good. While the concepts aren't really new, it's not often you see a good article that applies these concepts to business, so it's still worth reading.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
