Sarah Kessler, How The World Uses Social Networks
Social networks in every country might live on the same Internet, but  that doesn’t prevent differences in online customs and culture from  developing along geographic borders.
Ongoing market research service Global Web Index has mapped these differences in the infographic above (click it to enlarge).
The research, run by London-based consultancy Trendstream,  has conducted six waves of surveys about global consumer adoption of  the Internet and social media in 36 markets. It used data from its  February 2011 surveys of between 750 and 2,000 online users in each  market to define three behavior types: messagers, groupers and content  sharers.
In some countries, many of them Asian, most people were  focused on content sharing. Others, like the UK and Canada, had more  people who put a greater emphasis on sending messages.

Trendstream also used data from the survey to map social network penetration in each country that it surveyed.

Rather than being afraid or defensive, companies have to realize there are ways to mitigate, resolve, react or, sometimes, ignore criticism.

Sometimes, companies have to engage, somethings they need to fight back with the facts, and sometimes they need to let bad things flow by like like water off a duck’s back

Parce que l’utilisation des médias sociaux pour les marques implique aussi (et surtout) de définir en amont de toute intervention la stratégie de réponse à adopter en cas de commentaires négatifs…
