I guess you are right because regardless of how valuable we deem the skill sets necessary for working in online space, social media is still about people behind that technology. That’s where the intercultural communication skills kick in.

Indeed I would. I will e-mail you tomorrow with some topics to consider.

I’m aware that most of the opportunities are in the digital/social media space – but there’s also demand for students with an international perspective (language skills, cultural experience). You would appear to be well placed on both these counts.

It’s an important topic and I’d welcome an article on this for Behind the Spin (www.behindthespin.com). Would you like to research and write something for me (rbailey@pobox.com)?
