There is something truly amazing about right now. We are living through an experience that is undeniably unlike anything we have ever seen before. A little more than 24 hours ago, a earthquake rattled Haiti. [updated: earthquake occured at approxiamately 5:00 PM EST].

About 23 hours ago (around 12:30 AM 1-13-2010 EST), @RedCross posted this tweet:

Then about 16 hours later…this tweet was posted.

And another nine hours, this tweet …

3M

That’s quite powerful. Over $800,000 in sixteen hours. Nearly $3million dollars in 36 hours.

While this is not an illustration of how to use social media in B2B marketing, it is a demonstration of the state of communication and how Twitter is impacting our lives in every way at every moment.

There is no doubt. Social media will play a role in the future of your business. The question is only a matter of how soon will you get there.

I just added $10 more dollars to the cause, have you sent your text?
