Comments on: A New Tool for Local Web Marketing—Data Mined from Social Networks http://localmarketingmastery.com/data-mining-local-web-marketing/ Online Success For Your Local Business Tue, 04 May 2010 15:56:14 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: PintOGuinness http://localmarketingmastery.com/data-mining-local-web-marketing/comment-page-1/#comment-103 PintOGuinness Fri, 09 Oct 2009 20:20:46 +0000 http://localmarketingmastery.com/?p=160#comment-103 I will start off saying that people should have the right to control their information and that means being able to opt out of programs that allow others to get access to their personally identifiable information. Where I disagree with Mary on this is: marketers have been using mailing lists for ages to send targeted sales messages to people. Also, a whole new generation has been growing up where they have never known a world without the Internet. Privacy means something entirely different to them than it does us "old timers." Give the Internet another generation after this group and we really won't be able to distinguish between where our online life and our real one ends. I don't think people in the very near future are really going to care too much as long as they don't feel like they are being spammed. It's a brave new world we have landed upon and we will discover things about ourselves and others that would never have been accepted back in the old world. ~ Tim Conley PS.
