Is the social media space too crowded?

Here's one of the interviews I shot last week at the TechCrunch Disrupt conference reporting for Yammer.

At the TechCrunch Disrupt conference I spoke with two of my fellow colleagues from Socialmedia.biz, JD Lasica (founder of Socialmedia.biz and Socialbrite.org) and Ayelet Noff, founder of Blonde 2.0, about the overabundance of people in the social media space that call themselves "gurus." Now I would argue that anyone in the social media space that is successful does not actually call themself a "guru" but rather it's a name thrust upon them. And anyone who is calling themselves a social media "guru" you should be very wary of.

Ayelet and JD both disagree on this subject. What do you think?


And in other completely unrelated news...Enter Yammer's "Workplace Communications Horror Story!" Sweepstakes for a chance to win a free iPad. Deadline is October 15th, 2010.
