Social Media CSIT155

 
 
                                                  My Social Media Experience Week #2



   Social media can reach out to so many people, but yet be so personal. The most personal social media platform in my opinion is twitter. The reason for this is because its used to showcase your thoughts and communicate your feelings through out the day. Most people post daily unlike other social media, to let people what goings on. The best social media for business in my opinion is Instagram. Posting pictures of products and adding captions really helps give a visual of what your business is all about. Instagram can capture peoples attention with its short captions and direct approach.
  
   The one social media that can break the barrier of personal use and business would be Facebook. Since Facebook is the most used social media it can have the biggest outreach. Even thou it is used to post pictures and post on your timeline. Many business have their own Facebook and use this platform to reach audiences. There are many tools to use for business for instance you can create your own adds. You can promote events and let wide audiences know about your business.

   I personally have the most experience using social media apps like Instagram and Snapchat. These are the most fun to use and can stay current with your friends. You can communicate through chats and direct messages. These apps are always changing with new features and updates. They are very simple to use and have many people using these platforms. Another way I spend my time is on Youtube there is hours of content to be consumed and you can find videos that interest you. Me personally I love to watch skating and surfing videos that how I spend my free time. There are many people who you can subscribe to that put out videos daily. For me social media is just another way to stay connected with others while letting people know what happening in your life.

  1. I agree with you that Twitter can be a very personal source of social media. I also think you made a great point when you stated that Facebook is one form of social media that can break the barrier between personal and professional use. I agree that Facebook can have a huge reach. Wonderful insight!

  2. I have a Twitter account, but I have not made one post. Not sure why. I mostly use Facebook and Instagram. I like the point you made about youtube. My youngest spends hours a day on it watching some pretty cool stuff and some just plain silly stuff. I use it mostly for tutorials and music. D-
