Interesting comment you make about the developer answering customer care questions at 10pm on a Sunday night… I found myself doing something very similar on Twitter just yesterday, for an American guy who had problems with his Orange PAC code delivery. The Feed is a brand blog for Orange, so essentially nothing to do with PAC codes and customer services, but if you care about one part of the brand, you should care about it all. It’s not so much being expected to be on call all the time, but it’s a job well done if you are (more or less, a girl’s gotta sleep).

I agree with Mike above.

When I was in the military, or working in any position which required constant attention, I was trained to do something the right way, the way the boss liked, because if he were to have to go back and work on something he can trust that it is done the way he would do it.

You don’t teach someone your shortcuts or “tricks” as long as the end product is done so be it.

less micromanagement, and thus more relaxing to deal with.

not to get off topic though, sorry.

as for getting back to the people, I think tagging things in Twitter #insert tag here
is a very helpful way of tracking the conversation.

While I deeply miss what Jaiku could have been for the conversation, i understand what Twitter does for the buzz, and as long as you can follow the tagging, you can pick up where you left off.

This position also leaves your “Batman” character responsible to inform those that he is representing of what the consumers are saying so that they can relay that back and hopefully adjust the marketing/product accordingly.

Couple of things that occurred to me as i was reading this;

– Robin as the young apprentice (From the point of view of the apprentice – they never seems to get to do anything cool or glamourous, but (and this is one reason that apprenticeships were invented) they are right there watching the Master/journeyman practice their craft, and seeing how things *should* be done in many different situations, so that once let loose on their own they are less likely to make mistakes)

– the power of the team (Even though the individuals are strong, a group can achieve more)

– The change from Command&Control style management (I am sure i have read something about this somewhere recently but of course can’t find the link now, but at least these i think are relavent http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/fog0000000072.html and http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2009/05/11/090511fa_fact_gladwell?currentPage=all)
