Twitter is one of my favorite social media platforms because it is simple to use, and we get information fast. There are people we can connect with 24/7. Since I’ve been on Twitter for almost 3 years now, I’ve noticed a difference in how the site is being used by the community. I remember back when we only sent links of information. Conversations back then were minimal, and retweeting was not yet the norm. Twitter has evolved, and it has become a great tool for communicating ...
The latest buzz lately is all around Google Plus. I was very fortunate to be one of the first ones to get a beta invite, and it was quite easy to setup. If you have been active on the different social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, you will most likely find it easy to use. I’ve come across a lot of posts with people comparing the different social media sites. Many are sharing that they prefer Google Plus over Twitter and Facebook. One of the ...
When I first got on Twitter, I never realized that I would get so much out of the social networking site. I am active on Twitter everyday, and the experiences have been very rewarding for me. Not only do I get valuable information, but I also get to meet people who I wouldn’t get the chance to meet if it weren’t for Twitter. According to an article on PR Sarah Evans, “It took 3 years, 2 months and 1 day to hit 1 billion tweets. Now ...
Social media allows us to interact with so many people from all walks of life everyday, anytime. You can exchange information, greet friends, and even share memories through photo sharing and music. However, I know there are some people who simply wonder why they are not getting any reactions to what they share. What I’m referring to are retweets and @replies on Twitter, and likes and comments on Facebook. You may wonder, is this even important? Well, in some cases it would be great to know ...
Blogging has become a mainstream form of self-expression. It is also a great way for businesses and brands to get their message out to their customers. If you want a detailed review of a product or would like to learn the latest trends in design, for example, you can search the Internet and find the best articles written by bloggers all over the world. Like most social networking platforms, there are more and more people interested in creating blogs, whether it be for personal or professional ...
I really love this quote from Philip Adams, “Unless you’re willing to have a go, fail miserably, and have another go, success won’t happen.” I had the opportunity to hear a talk about how Disney works in terms of their thinking when it comes to strategy. I must say, they follow simple rules yet you can see the impact in everything they do. Some people I know have dreams and goals that they know can be accomplished, and yet they hold back and tell themselves to ...
If you are active in social media, I am sure that you have at some point seen the now famous Twitter fail whale. For those new to Twitter, the fail whale is the signal we get when the site is down, which usually happens due to overcapacity or maintenance. For many Twitterholics, seeing the fail whale can be brutal because it forces us to take a small time out from tweeting. People react to the situation differently, which is quite interesting to see. Some people just ...
Twitter has had a big influence on me. People who follow me on the site know that I tweet a lot, and that I enjoy meeting and tweeting with friends and new followers everyday. Those who are new to Twitter might say that I am crazy for writing this piece because how can a social networking site change someone’s life? However, I know those who have been on the site and have enjoyed the experience like I have will agree that it can be life changing. ...
Social media brings us closer to the brands that we use. If you are on Facebook, aside from “liking” pages that you want to be updated with regarding their promotions and fun activities, you can also find some brands that allow users to give virtual gifts to friends and family. If your friends like donuts, coffee or even hugs, you can easily access gifts for them through the different Facebook apps. In addition to Facebook, there are a lot of other apps available through the app ...
I grew up playing with a lot of kids on the streets. I was fortunate that my brother and sister were both close to my age, and we always ended up spending our summers together playing street games with the other kids in our neighborhood. My parents would yell to us when it was time to come inside, which usually happened when the sun got too hot to play in. We loved playing tag, hide and seek, street football and of course, a childhood favorite, dodgeball. ...
Four years ago, if we asked our friends whether or not they were on Facebook, we got a lot of funny looks. However, not anymore, people communicate so differently now than even just a few years ago. The majority of conversations between friends and family now happen on social networking sites. Times have changed so much that instead of asking someone to call us to remind us of an event or special occasion, we now opt to tweet or Facebook each other. We rarely exchange phone ...
Taking pictures is so much fun. It seems like these days everyone has a digital camera or a smartphone with a camera. Ever since the photo sharing trend started on social networking platforms like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, people have been capturing more and more of their memories to share with friends and family. If you own an iPhone or an Android phone, you will notice so many applications that you can download for free so you can give your photos new creative twists. You can ...
