A hot topic these days is the maturation of social media sites and how they are changing the way we communicate on the web.  The means to generate buzz about your business has never been more available.  Old school business executives don’t appear to be big fans of them, but the attention they are getting most certainly cannot be ignored.

The question you need to be asking yourself is, How can I utilize social media sites to help market my business and generate some buzz about my products and services?  To answer that you first need to know who they are and what they do.

SEOmoz has put together a great article outlining a few of the leading social media sites and how they can help you to Leverage Web 2.0 & Social Media Sites to Market Your Brand & Control Your Message.
