In fact take me for example I work in telecommunications, Ive lost count the amount of times Ive got help from searching google discussions, I was even able to identify a trend with DSL router chipsets being incompatible with the ADSL2+ chipsets in our exchange equipment by the numerous forum posts across the world.
Ive had a friend in another teleco company do something for me after a quick message on FB that gets my customers service up and running a lot quicker, if it was you would you have prefered me to not have used facebook and let your fault progress buisness as usual and instead of 1 hours downtime you get 2 days downtime?

I don't know what sort of firm it is, he never said. You have chosen a different point of view. In some small areas you are able to utilise the social network.
As so much productive time is wasted on social networks, I do not believe they have a place in the general office.
My opinion, but it does not mean I am not open minded. And just because I travel, does not give me the same mindset as you.
