    Adapted from my blog, my(PR)palette, March 15, 2009

    SocialCorp is clearly written and, unlike the blogosphere, well organized and thought out.

    Author Joel Postman begins by offering his definition of a 'SocialCorp' and then goes on to discuss what it takes to become one. In chapters filled with case studies and examples, he provides a strategic overview of the tools, talks about the impact on brands and audiences and offers a perspective on ethics (they haven't changed) and measurement (it has).

    He believes it's most important for organizations to articulate their business goals and then develop a communications plan that incorporates the relevant web 2.0 tools that will help to achieve them.

    Two highlights: a social media readiness quiz that quickly gives you a snapshot of where you/your organization stand (you can try it online here) and a useful glossary.

    I'd highly recommend this book for anyone looking to gain a better understanding of the business of being 'social'.
