When social networks become networks of purpose, working together to solve important problems, CEOs will take them seriously. Until then, CEOs will think they are taking productive time away from making a profit for the company.
Solving problems via the internet is the same as solving problems through any face based process, except the people who participate can come from many different parts of the world and the ideas used to innovate solutions can also come from many parts of the world. Solving important problems take lots of people, many years, and lots of sweat, brains and money. We need learn to use social networking to innovate ways to get these resources and keep them focused on specific problems for many years. When social network people demonstrate that they can innovate better solutions, faster and at a lower cost than can place based groups, CEOs will join them. My opinion.
