B) I like that you humanized it w/the rock band example.

C) I’m still reminded in many of these types of models of the old core influence model with the concentric circles…of course that was focused on traditional media and you had the analyst community, then some specific media (e.g. tech, mobile, whatev) based on your core audience,and then extend extend extend until broad awareness and adoption. It’s not a completely 1:1 comparison and of course I’ve overly simplified how I explained it – but it just reminds me a bit of how people could serve themselves well if they simply kept some of those core principles close re: how a story is built, travels, gains momentum and becomes lore.

D) I still like your dissonance post the most, but I do like this as well…which is why I’m stealing…I mean SHARING it.
