Ghennifer talks about being a leader in social media by continuing to blog and tweet with openess to obtain corporate sponsorship. Gwen provides some great advice on how to gain corporate sponsorship by engaging in consistent and ongoing dialogue by showing up regularly to your blog and adding value. She stresses "cross pollination" which means spreading your content around the web with other social tools like Vimeo, Twitter and Flickr. Cross Pollination is KEY! Jessica Carter stresses the use of plugins and tools that adds functionality and engages users. Jessica also recommends that you build a community that is easy to navigate.
