Social networks are another source to include in your early warning process since they lead to connections that you will never make through Web 1.0 Internet searching, paid databases, company connections and the same external suspects, such as industry experts, scientists and the investment community. Find and qualify those who should become part of your early warning process. In a cooperative spirit, decide what you will share with them. Organize them in your database, and decide how often you will connect with them or just consider them loose connections to contact as needed.
