Social Media
by Susie Watson on October 24th, 2006
According to Wikipedia (in itself a social medium), the term describes the online tools and platforms that people use to share opinions, insights, experiences, and perspectives with each other. So with podcasts, blogs, vlogs and the like growing exponentially, where will it all lead? Will there be anyone left to just listen or will we all be too busy talking? Susie believes the latter, and also suggests that blogs are not the marketing tool they are being hyped to be. The ladies also discuss journalism as it relates to blogging - it is a complex worldwide web we weave.
