My grad thesis may actually focus on it. I've noticed large corporations make very limited statements (I'm assuming on purpose) on Twitter. The "business as usual" model seems to be the standard, right now. My gut is that adding to the conversation via very social avenues only increases negative attention to the organization.  If you have any recommendations or other observations on the subject, I'd love to talk to you. @tobycphillips:disqus  I’m a grad student in the Public Communication program at American University and I’ve actually been looking into the debate you’ve posted above.

We have realized this and we have recently launched a beta version of a B2B social media site http://www.MyTradeZone.com, which targets the specific needs of businesses, including lead generation.  The key difference for MyTradeZone is that only businesses can sign up and create their company profile, list products or services, request price quotes, and even follow other businesses.
