So very true. All great points. I have to be a Debbie Downer, but I think the shine is wearing off already at least with the folks I'm connected to on Vine. I don't see the same levels of posting as a did when it first launched. Maybe it is just developing a patina and maturing from that bright new toy phase. I'm still having fun with it... by using the Vine videos I've taken for other platforms.

I'd be interested to know if they would be differences between men and women. I know when I exercise in the morning and grab an apple before workout then had breakfast, I did lose more.

I think companies are being led down side-streets by shiny new objects. Blinded by the newness and coolness of it all they are losing focus. For me, it all comes back to know your business and customers allowing for an express route instead of side-streets.

I like Jim's attitude towards social media. He is correct when he says, "Social media loves a “Try-er.” Yes, that's what makes social media so great in my mind.

I agree with you that influence metrics are here to stay for better or worse. Betting the house on Klout isn't a smart yet for an individual or business. The metrics aren't stable and refined enough currently. It hasn't matured enough to really provide real honest value.

SusanOakes I appreciate your last paragraph... A LOT! Thank you for saying that. Too many people blindly follow the new shiny object.

Erica - thanks for your post. I'm finding that there is a disconnect as to how businesses interact with female entrepreneurs who just happen to be moms.
