Social Objects Meet Editorial Objects

Continuing the spirit of ejecting overly incubated ideas from my dome -

I have been thinking about connecting the dots between the recent surge of content strategy and the best social design strategy going - social objects.

Content and community have been bound forever on the web for obvious reasons. But I am curious about methods of design that embrace the connection between the two now that content strategy has got its foot in the agency door and "social" is a daily reality, not the next big thing.

• Can we grow social objects within an editorial framework?
• Does Content Strategy + Product Strategy = Editorial driven social applications that enable community to create content within an editorial framework?
• Do your Editorial Objects Sync With Your Social Objects?
• Are you giving the community the same tools as the publishers?

All questions I would love to hear peoples thoughts on.
