Ivan: The title was picked by friend, author and public speaker, Stefan Engeseth. I used this title when I wrote a blurb in his latest book, Sharkonomics - How to Attack Market Leaders.

There are some funny spoofs on Amazon's Echo on YouTube! ;)

Ivan,

Yes, that is what I am afraid of... These "damn" marketers! ;) It is better to be an social media evangelist instead! :)

I use Alexa.com now and then. Have you used the premium features? I meant Amazon's new robot gadget, called Echo, with the virtual assistant named Alexa.

I'm not familar with Echo - just checked, it's pretty forward-thinking, I must say!

Ivan: Thanks for the explanation. I have heard Gary Vaynerchuck mentioned this several times in his video series.

What will happen when your stream is filled with dark posts? Did you know that Twitter is allowing advertisers to buy followers and put ads in their stream?

Thanks for the robot update. Have you tested Alexa by Amazon?

Martin,

If that happens, then what Gary Vaynerchuk has predicted comes true: Marketers (finally) ruined Facebook :)

Alexa - did you mean Alexa.com? If so, I'm using it regularly.

Ivan: Could you explain the dark posting on Facebook? Could this activity backfire? Would you say that Robots are a part of Internet of things?

Martin,

FB dark posts (unpublished posts): I can't see how dark post will backfire, as it's pretty much like the typical Facebook ads, only it will display in the stream. Plus, you can target virtually anyone on Facebook, not only your fans and followers.

Robots: Yes, they can be an important part of IoT, but it's still too early, IMO ( http://www.iotworldview.com/#!Internet-of-Things-IoT-and-Robots/c1nni/74FC5C35-07B6-4F17-9CFE-4B24B618B777 )
