David was recommended by the brother of a colleague of mine that had heard him speak. When I saw the subject matter of David’s book, “Relationship Economics,” I knew he would be perfect for SM@RT 2010. I checked Scott out with several agents I was working with and all had high praise for him. Scott made this list of 10 top social media speakers.

Doubtless, everyone of the list members deserves to be there, but I can add a number of ladies who do as well (on top of those already submitted): -Toby Bloomberg -Yvonne DiVita -BL Ochman -Ann Handley -Elisa Camahort And the list could go on.

Due to some confusion and concern about the exact meaning of "Our Top Ten," we made a decision to re-title the post "Social Media Speakers: 10 to Know," which would have actually been a better fit from the beginning. The introductory text has also been slightly revised to provide further clarification that these are 10 speakers from our roster - as are all of the speakers we write about on our blog. Again, this is a better fit than the original text. As always, hindsight is 20/20! The list of speakers remains the same, but we'll be spotlighting some great women in social media very soon. We never intended to ignite (or fuel) such a firestorm with this blog entry, but we listen and we learn.
