Social media: there’s always more to learn
This morning I attended a social media workshop and seminar given by my friend and colleague Gail Helmer. It was educational and, because I’m a geek about the web, it was really fun. There are roughly 10 billion more social media outlets than I thought there were. I’ve been active on the web for over 10 years, but I’ll never know everything about it. It’s really part of what makes it great, in my opinion.
I don’t want to poach Gail’s scene and reveal everything she talked about, but I will share one tidbit. Today I was introduced to Samepoint, which is a search engine targeted specifically to social media. You can filter by media type and keywords – it’s really quite fun. I actually had to remind myself to eat lunch because I was getting so carried away!
Anyway, I had a really great time and I walked home with my brain full of ideas – always a good sign!
