The basic tool is the personal profile that a member enters. Some information may be visible to the online world, some only to other members. Full access to a member's information typically is available only by invitation from that member. Most sites offer free basic membership and sell upgrades." 17 Mar 2008 18:00 GMT http://www.zoominfo.com/About/news/in-the-news.aspx "Created by the Colleges of Worcester Consortium Inc., “Worcester Rocks” is an example of how organizations — from nonprofits to big businesses — are using social media to connect with audiences to sell products or strengthen their brands.
