Claim: authenticity beats status as authority on the social web because constant public feedback forces alignment between story and behavior. Uses: Twitter, blogs, BlackBerry/real‑time streams and searchable Google history as mirror tools. Evidence: social signals and comments expose mismatches — example given of 400 emails, 398 negative — and the Twitter gap highlights mismatched sincerity. Outcome: owning mistakes and being honest in public increases trust and engagement over polished corporate drag.
