Seth Godin (↑) finally started tweeting or twittering as some call it.

You do not believe me, then check this out.

“The reason they want you to fit in…
is that once you do, then they can ignore you.”

Certainly a statement that leaves room for interpretation.

So here is mine.

Average companies are looking for average people. They do not want to deal with heretics, unicorns or anyone who could surprise them.

Surprise is a potential threat.
Boring is good!

What is tribal marketing anyway?

Many large organization try to mold everything and everyone. It seems that small business organizations can change more quickly, and they have to.

P.S.: Now we have to teach Mr. Godin the twitter interface since this short piece of text was still posted on his blog.

Just a discussion with Mary and after she didn't let loose and continued to ask, "But how does this effect your work?"

I finally came up with a version of my own:

The reason I want you to fit in,
is that once you do, we can rely on eachother.

What do you think about that?
