For ages now, I've told folks with whom I'm intimate what my personal vocation is, and your blog article has inspired me to come out of the closet... I am a memetic bard. In every culture there is a bardic tradition, some role that is there to reinterpret the old wine in new skins, to make the new acceptable, and to make sure that the ideas that need to pervade the culture travel on wings. Traditionally this has more to do with religion and politics, but as McLuhan says, the medium is the message -- to work with new media effectively we must become riders of the ether, and memetic bards. See, and you thought I was just a marketing and business strategy consultant for the converging areas of virtual worlds, gaming and social networking. Too long a title anyway... Memetic bard. Probably CEO is better on the business card though... This made me smile.

They'll grow it and contribute value. The bad ones will see this and just look at how they can exploit it.
