Cisco Social Software Lets You "Stalk" Customers
coondoggie writes "Cisco this week unveiled software designed to let companies track customers and prospects on social media networks like Twitter, Facebook, blogs and other public forums and sites. Cisco SocialMiner allows users to monitor status updates, forum posts and blogs of customers so they can be alerted of conversations related to their brand. The software is designed to not only enable enterprises to monitor the conversations of their customers but to engage those that require service, Cisco says."

You can upgrade to their premium service and it will dig through your trash and call you randomly in the middle of the night and hang up.
I'll be damned if someone services my wife!
Let alone engage her!
No, you shouldn't post a list of your fears and locations where you'll be napping on the internet.

Stop!
Hammer time!
