Should you have a Social Media Presence?

Mitch Joel of TwistImage did not ask the question but said: You are expected to have a Social Media Presence!

He backed it up with these statistics: "93% of online Americans say companies should have a social media presence and 85% believe these companies also should be interacting with consumers through social media.

And more..

I think it is becoming more and more imperative that not only that you have one, but it is part of your everyday business structure. I gave a talk recently and and most of the audience had a website presence, so they thought, but an equal number did not know what RSS was or for that matter what the orange button next. My question is Do you really have a presence without activity in the the Social Media?

Ok, it sounds good but where do I start? I encourage you to find a blogging site that you like and start commenting on a few blogs. Take a look at my recent post of Blogging Mistakes.
