Social Media as a Disruptive Technology

What is a disruptive technology?  "New ways of doing things that disrupt or overturn the traditional business methods and practices. For example, steam engine in the age of sail, and internet in the age of post office mail."

I can guarantee that no one took "notes" when I was an undergraduate by taking a picture of the whiteboard! Just like the mobile devices we all use have disrupted the way we study and learn, social media has also "disrupted" the way people live and do business.  

Please read the following blog posts that explore this.
