I just read a good article called "Where fine dining and social media meet"
It offers some good success stories of restaurants using facebook and twitter to build followings and to promote offerings.
The article also mentions Foursquare
(a location-based social network), which I'll talk about in a future
post. But I'll tell you that the right bars and restaurants could
definitely do some valuable things with Foursquare.
Social media
will certainly evolve, but it's not going away. The good news is that
those late to the game can catch up fairly quickly and start reaping
the benefits that the early adopters are seeing.
I wrote an article in the spring about getting started with social media for anyone looking for help on getting twitter, facebook, or a blog up and running.
