The gist is that social media is going to become an increasingly important part of marketing strategy.

The easiest way that I've found to explain the idea of social media, is to talk about who is creating the content. Places where the users create the content, like Facebook and Twitter, but also sites like YouTube, Flickr, and countless blogs and forums are social media sites.
Of course millions of people are spending significant amounts of time on those sites. Read the article to learn more about how businesses are going to start getting serious about using them as marketing tools.

Tilton Pacific Construction had an impressive resume in corporate construction but a website that didn't match. Wheel created a visually rich yet approachable design that builds trust with the visitor and is a snap to update. Behind the scenes we created an elegant and easy-to-use Online Workroom that creates accounts for TPC partners and gives them access to important project information and files.
