I just took the best social media class ever!! A networking business associate of mine asked me to take this class in her place. She thought that not only could I learn from it for my business, but I could pass the information on to her in a more “chewable” fashion.
I thought I knew quite a bit about social media, but boy was I wrong!! There is so much more out there!! Most everyone knows about Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, and YouTube, but did you know about HootSuite, Vimeo, Delicious or how to use Google Docs to create a survey for your company? I use Google Docs, for spread sheets, coding cheat sheet, etc. but had NO idea that I could create a survey and that it would tally the results!! How cool is that?
How about how to shorten url’s by using bit.ly or tinyurl.com when referencing other web items? The trainer of the class introduced us to this… Tumblr.com and instead of having a huge blog that gives the impression of needing to write long articles, this does not!! Quick, easy and user-friendly is quite an understatement!!
