00:01 Intro and welcome
02:30 Funny that a new media guy is getting a lot of attention with a printed book.
02:55 This is a WHY book, not a HOW book, about new media, social media and personal branding, from a business person’s perspective.
03:20 Mitch Joel wrote this book to focus on WHY; strategy tied to business goals. As the author, he was a business guy, not a marketing guy.
06:00 In praise of slow: a ripple, not a splash.
09:45 What would Mitch say to someone who is looking for a short cut? The answer: When did it not become a business owner’s responsibility to engage with customers?
13:00 Six Pixels of Separation ends with practical advice.
13:45 Start with small steps like setting up alerts in Google Reader.
16:44 Mitch’s next book may be about the great un-tethering; what does freedom from wires really mean?
19:00 Six Pixels of Separation is also a roadmap of how Mitch built his business.
20:00 Mitch thanks Donna for introducing him to podcasting. BONUS: Here is that first interview.
