Is SideWiki A Reputation Management Problem?
Google has rolled out another product – one that hasn’t seemed to gain too much traction in the short time that it has been available but that has received it’s fair share of criticism. The main criticism hurled at it is that it is a ticking reputation management time bomb. Is this criticism justified?
Scotland SEO explains why they’re a bit shaky in the boots about SidiWiki. On the other hand, Nick at Search Engine Optimization Journal doesn’t seem a great deal concerned. And Paul at TalkBiz has a very detailed post on how Google is plotting to steal the Web. Is it really that big a problem or just a bunch of hype?
Well, I can’t say that the concerns many of these people bring up are not real. They are. But should webmasters go around singing “the sky is falling?”
Personally, I think webmasters should write the Google staff and request some modifications to SidiWiki – I do believe it could post some reputation management problems for a lot of people. But it’s nothing to go to war over – yet. Most of Google’s new products take time to pick up steam. If SideWiki is like any of the others, we’re a long way away from universal usage of the Google Toolbar.
