Great post:

This week I was fortunate enough to be asked to speak at ASA in regard to a Social Media workshop. The topic of discussion was Social Media – Where's The ROI?

Mixi Fatigue is the  psychological state of a Japanese youth experiencing a sense of tiring from using Mixi and voicing a desire to discontinue using Mixi and finally deciding to terminate the Mixi account. So do not get Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, or whatever other social network(s) you decide to use "fatigue".
