Thanks for letting me plug the book, Morty. Here's a link for Beyond Buzz.
I had wanted the title to be "Something to Talk About," because the book provides so many examples and pragmatic ways for finding interesting ideas that get people engaged and talking. While companies "get" Web 2.0 techniques, many, many struggle with finding ideas worth talking about -- especially the type of ideas that make meaning and not superficial buzz.
Alas, the editor overruled me -- and even used the "B" word I so hate.

Re: Beyond Buzz or Something To Talk About
Lois,
Pardon me for saying so, but... smart editor! From a marketing standpoint, the most important part of a book is the title. It can make or break sales. Direct marketing pioneer Maxwell Sackheim took a book that wasn't selling and changed the title from Five Acres to Five Acres and Independence. The first title just sat there. The second one grabbed people by the lapel and sold them a benefit. Morty Trackbacks
