[...] Mark Dykeman of the Broadcasting Brain followed up on my post “Life by social media rules” and went on to discuss the nature of role models and the part they play. Role models are perfect examples of influencers in action; kids will always emulate their favourite sports star, dress like a pop star and buy products advertised by film stars – it’s all part of the learning experience and the road to becoming your own person. The twist with mark’s post, however, is that he argues the existence of different types of role model based on the method of exposure and sphere of influence. [...]

There’s a long term trap or danger in becoming famous, having lots of subcribers, and growing your readership: the loss of contact, responsiveness, and connection with your readers.

Loren Feldman would be the anti-Role Model 3.0 for sure then. He's starting the new movement: Web 3.0: F@$* you. It's all for me.
