But how are we going to make any money on this if everyone is unemployed? Just asking?

Now is the time to invest heavily into online, not avoid it. So many people are losing their jobs... now is the time to make a go of it on your own, and there's never been a greater time in the history of the world to cost effectively launch a business without having to spend millions on advertising and publicity.

I first dove into the Social Media waters in '02 after resigning from Sapient. He's got the right recipe...time on your hands, wanting social interaction, re-connecting with friends that you didn't have time for before, looking for work...these will drive user and engagement numbers in the near future. All we need now are those clients bold enough to see the opportunity and smart enough to allocate the budget. I have to agree with Jason.
