You're very right, there's room for clients and agencies to work together on SM activities. The key is to have a platform that enables collaboration across agencies/clients boundary to perform monitoring, share insights, perform assessment and share results. btw, we help you with that. If you're interested, I can show you how. Laurent I certainly don’t want anything to affect your bottom line! ;-) .

As a PR agency, monitoring the social media better helps you understand what people are saying about the company and how to move forward. The main hurdle I see is getting free reign. You don't want to have to call up and ask permission every time you have a tweet to send out. Yet, you need to do it frequently enough to maintain and build a presence Its not the best answer, but it could work.

Be present through a proxy is in between. Be present through a companies own people is the best. Look at the best SM example (Dell, Sun microsystems...) they all have people active in SM.
