You asked the questions, and he answered them.

The story behind Zac Martins question to Joseph Jaffe is a story about the power of conversation and the importance of customer service in an age of the networked society.

How would you feel if someone said that your recent events and posts regarding Delta Skelter could be considered blackmail?

If you want to read all about the Delta Skelter issue in depth, then head to Jaffe Juice, Josephs blog and read the original post: Delta Skelter

The skinny on this issue is that after enduring a nightmare journey with the airline Delta, Joseph was forced to travel coach (economy) when he had been confirmed in a business class seat. The customer service provision by Delta was inadequate, and Joseph took up the issue on his blog to illustrate the open paradigm of customer service that exists in todays blogging-fuelled mediascape.

But the real question is, was this tantamount ot blackmail?

Watch the fifth in this series of video interviews with Joseph and decide for yourself: blackmail, or the changing nature of customer service marketing in a Web 2.0 world?
