This is a problem I ran into at my current day gig. I attempted to show them how to utilize social media and the PR person did not want to hear what I had to say. I set up a twitter, friendfeed, grousite, picaso, and connected the twitter to the completely dead facebook group for my job. USA Today listed our twitter in their travel blog within the first 2 months our twitter went active. Now the PR department wants to take over the twitter account.
When you take on a profession you should ALWAYS keep up with the newest avenues to do your job....otherwise you should just retire.

I was taught "he who has the gold, makes the rules..." Hopefully the younger more agile agencies can show the older bigger and slower ones how to still make money in this ever changing web 2.0 world...
