Only that its too early to know how? That's why this question? <br /><br />a) Will large Oil companies tap a 'possible' vast social network thru its employees to conduct UAI surveys for new product launches? <br />b) Will large Oil companies move from TV advertising to Social Network Advertising for the Corporate Identity and Brand Communication? <br />c) Will the large Oil companies start inviting Request for Quotations via the Social network to tap the unknown potential? <br /><br />There are several other areas which can be thought of? Comments welcome. <br /><br />regards <br /><br />Vikram Razdan<br />http://www.petrojobrecruit.co.uk<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1570099389578882698-7910369965614571283?l=petrojobrecruit-uk.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/SocialNetworkingAndOilgasIndustry/~4/N8wxU2W8Va4" height="1" width="1"/>PetroJobRecruit.co.ukhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01925017928198343296noreply@blogger.com0http://petrojobrecruit-uk.blogspot.com/2009/07/social-netwoking-like-twitter-and-oil.html
