I made a post about it on my blog: http://www.room362.com/archives/254-Ego-Surfing...
I was lucky enough to experience some Gary V "caring" the other day. To get a 140 character message from Gary showed me that he really cares about helping people that look up to him.
There was nothing in it for him other than helping someone, that someone just happened to be me.
If big companies did this, so much would change.
Thanks man,

Just did it and was ablto to say thanks on over 20 blogs via their comments area. With of course a link back to my site.
Hadn't done this before... search blogs that is.
Cheers,
John
I've searched blogs and I do enjoy it and find it interesting to see how many people link to other sites or even back to my own. It has sparked an interest in me and it's something I'm working on now.
Thanks so much for the tip!

Did what you suggested and Google is really killing it. Did anyone notice at the bottom of the search page that Google lets you stay updated by email alerts, a gadget, or blog search feed? Way to go Google...
the fact that you personally go through your emails and respond means so much to everyone who decides to email you. you recently became a follower of mine on twitter, and when i saw that you were following me i had a mega-smile on my face for like 4 days. the fact that you care about what i'm twittering means a lot to me. this is my favorite GV.com ever. i love you times ka-jillion!
I will have to say this though G. There needs to be on the ground leadership with YOUR peeps, the ones that work for you. I know you dont leave them in the learch, time to blog on that aspect of the biz. You cant be on the computer all day and still run the battle on the ground... but then again, I never worked in a net based biz.
As for the enterprise, the marketing, sales, PR, IR people have incredibly powerful monitoring systems available to them. DNA13 and Vocus are two that monitor all that is the web plus they even monitor TV streams and inbound press calls, etc. (at least DNA13 does).
Proactively managing your personal brand has never been easier and definitely should not take hours per day - IMHO.
What struck me today is that people do link to my website through their blogs; I go visit to see what they say... but I never said (or wrote) anything to them, thinking they'd get creeped out, like I'm spying on them. But your Tylenol analogy hit home! From now on, I'm going to contact them, thank them and offer them up something for free!
Thanks for being you,
Suzanne

Thanks Gary for the tip. A very useful one.

I am glad you are telling soooo many to care!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know many who do care. But I know MANY more who don't care about anyone including themselves........THANKS!!!!!!
I'm thinking that the first video I saw with you I was like : What's this guy doing ? And why he is so enthusiastic ? But after I've watched few other videos and after I find out who he is and after he responded to my e-mails and to my DMs on Twitter I've become a Gary Vaynerchuk Fan. I show his videos to my friends and I think we all would like to be able to talk with so much passion in front of a video camera.
So, yes, Gary really cares. It's not just small talk. He really answers to your e-mail.
Thank you
Thanks for the inspiration Gary.
And now I have a good excuse for constantly searching myself on multiple search engines before I do my bookkeeping and file my receipts.
But really, I'm glad you are telling people that they should care. I think most people just don't know how to care in this new Web 2.0 world. Thanks for a great video post.

Chapter two reads..."just as the ego, your lower self, has its own heinous modus operandi when unchecked or unchallenged, you middle self, the open-minded part of you, is able to attract people, circumstances, books, concepts and principles that stir the soul awake.
"The goal is an ego that co-exists with a healthy conscience. The first techniques I (Albert) suggest to bring your ego into balance are visualization and dialogue. They will help to reach a part of you that has been hidden from you for much of your life."
while you had Mott recording this. We were all getting upset because you were out of the frame waving your watch around. LOL. Great ustream show BTW. Cheers
BTW, you think you have an f'ed-up name? Try having one that's named after a blood-sucking parasite! :)
Cheers!
You hit this one out of the park! So true!
We also spend hours and hours Searching. And it is because we can, and want to connect anyone that needs help or thank anyone who loves what we do.
We also use www.bloglines.com - it searches blogs that google blog search does not.
But, we are always monitoring, because we want to hear what people have to say and listen to give them better and better customer service.
Thanks Gary for sharing this! This is an important message!

Especially the throwing the watch thing!
BTW,your video "Better than Zero" is a very good one.
Thanks a bunch!
O, if you DO sell them, will you ship to FPO AE 09622? We live in Italy and rely on the MPS for our US mail. ~thanx
It really is about listening; yes time consuming, but time well spent!
I do this everyday for my company. If they are your users, you need to care about them or else you don't have a successful product. It comes down to the golden rule, treat them how you want to be treated. If someone is stoked on my product, I will send them a shirt and a thank you note. That way you have a fan and brand advocate for life.
(Confession: googled "gaynerchuck" 5 min before seeing this video)
Crrrruuuuusssshhhhh It!
This video outlines exactly why I spend less time working on things. (:

It was fun hanging out with you at the wine event at Fort Mason last weekend! Thanks for a really fun night.
I was one of the raffle winners. I won a $300 gift certificate for winelibrary.com. Please let me know what I need to do to collect the prize. Thanks!

I know that you're opposed to having people help you respond to your vayniacs but I think you should hire a virtual assistant or two to manually check this stuff for you and give you daily/weekly updates. I think that would be a much more efficient use of your time and money.

I'm new to twitter and looking for to follow me on twitter so I can reply to you and talk about wine and the New York Jets. My twitter account is under tennispro. This goes out to anyone else that wants to talk about wine. I passionate about red wine from all over the world. Come join a discussion :)

I was introduced to you at an FIU seminar being presented by John Fleming ( he played a youtube video on web 2.o and yours was the one we watched). I think it would be in my best interest to follow you on as many online vehicles as possible. I am trying to move my company more towards internet marketing and web 2.0 and you seem to know what you are doing. Thank you and have a great weekend.

Best wishes !
I am just *hearing* you for the first time in this video (linked from Chris Brogan's post today (Dec 29)) - and wow, i love your passion and enthusiasm! You've got a unique style and i'm going to keep reading through your site to find more cool posts. Love what you're saying here... but for those people/businesses who don't have the time or haven't put the time in to listen, what actionable steps would you put out there for them?
(thanks for reading my comment :)
cheers.
I would definitely call it 'ego searching' ;)
Interesting thoughts. I see a lot of "ego-searching" on Able Grape. Agreed, "caring" is cool, but not all ego-searching is necessarily caring.
When I see somebody dig deep into the results (far past their own site), or filter by blogs, then yes, there's someone who cares. And when I see that they query for other wine-related topics, then I think, "wow, there's someone who cares about their customers, and is actually passionate and curious about wine, too." There really are a few people like this, and it's great to see.
Sadly, though, I see a lot of "ego searching" on Able Grape that doesn't seem to be about keeping in touch with customers. People are often looking for their own sites, and just want to see if they're present and rank highly in searches. They come, they do one search for themselves, verify their presence or non-presence, and they go away (and then sometimes I get an email asking them to add me to the search engine). At least judging by their search behavior, I wouldn't say these people "care" either about their customers or about wine. It's a little disheartening, really!
I just wrote a little text about the problem that companies aren't listening anymore to consumers. And that it's a shame. Because they do have a voice that can be heard trough internet. And you CAN LISTEN TO THEM.
Because if you ignore people. I do believe they will ignore you in the end. End you end up loosing.
Brilliant!! You told it brilliant!! Better. Love it.
You are SOOOOO right on with this it's not even funny.
"Find it and fix it"...like grandpappy used to say.
