I personally think that anyone can do it IF THEY WANT TO - but then there's still the question of whether you really need it or you just WANT it. Not all businesses, especially the big ones, have time to engage in conversation. Also, you must determine whether your target market is actually on those social media sites. Because if they aren't, what's the use, really? Did you just say that social media is for everyone?

Front End: Main difference is really dependent on what is your purpose of using twitter. E.g. if you purpose is customer service, then there is a tendency for more @reply and chat streams. Check out @wholefoods for reference. Some larger business tends to be a little more reserve in using twitter, and use it more for pushing out info streams. BackEnd: Oh, big difference, they could be having one person managing one twitter account, they would have a larger team to do online surveying as well. Facebook & Twitter integration is quite an obvious choice as they are the high traffic sites. On this -> [very small “mom & pops”] & [big guys like Queensland and Goode] it’s not just pure Social Media but rather being “found” on the internet. I would say SM is like a fast track entry point. If we are on the web, we are under the mercy of Google, why? Because it’s the largest search engine. Last but not least, I googled around your wine shop, you have a lot of room to increase exposure. You are doing not too bad... I've seen your twitter stream. Hi Scott,
