And <em>The Sure Thing</em> is a vastly underappreciated piece of 80s cinema, in my opinion, as are most John Cusack movies. Great!

I am.<br>Joe Fox: Then why don't you run off with him? What are you waiting for?<br>Kathleen Kelly: I don't actually know him.<br>Joe Fox: Really?<br>Kathleen Kelly: We only know each other - oh, God, you're not going to believe this...<br>Joe Fox: Let me guess. From the Internet."<br><br>Okay, maybe that's not the best example ever... Good one! Turn Online Relationships into Offline Relationships…

Feels like You've Got Mail, to me:

“Joe Fox: You're crazy about him…
Kathleen Kelly: Yes. I am.
Joe Fox: Then why don't you run off with him? What are you waiting for?
Kathleen Kelly: I don't actually know him.
Joe Fox: Really?
Kathleen Kelly: We only know each other – oh, God, you're not going to believe this…
Joe Fox: Let me guess. From the Internet.”

Okay, maybe that's not the best example ever…

It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!" hmmm… Attitude is Everything, eh…

I'm feeling like that requires a quote from Rocky Balboa.

“But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!”

I'd have to digg through my pile of dvd's to add any more... But really I think you're dead on with it all! Work each and every one of these points and execute on your social media strategy in 2009. <br><br>I guess the one thing I would say is find opportunities to connect off-line. To turn on-line relationships, into off-line relationships. As you said, "step away from the keyboard." After all, this social networking stuff doesn't just happen on-line...

I'd add that attitude is everything. Especially in hard times. This requires skill and effort - and it's well worth the time. 2009 can be a year to practice this - and it's ultimate giving - everyone around us benefits when we have an authentically positive attitude. Life is a challenge, if we don't see things for as they are, and just slightly better - there's not much of a compelling future.<br><br>Happy New Years :) Thanks for the listing.
