It's a great new world. But not a hard and fast one. Some people find that comfortable. Some get antsy and want to define roles.
But one of the problems is that the roles are being made up along the way.
From where I sit, I feel luckily to be around to help make our own rules, carve our own niches, and help others get ideas for their own places and roles.
On the Forrester Social User Ladder shown here (click to enlarge), I wind up being a creator. Sometimes I'm simply a joiner who is carried along more or less passively. I like to observe. To gauge what's happening.
The thing is - I'm not sure the rungs are ever really so well defined nor that we stay on one to the exclusivity of the others. And I'd likely add some rungs in between that blur the distinctions.
But then again, you knew that blurring the lines thing about me probably?
Where do you see yourself on the ladder? What encourages you and people around you to change rungs?
