SOCIAL MEDIA why, where and how?
“ Information consumes the attention of its recipients. Hence a  wealth of information  creates a  poverty of attention  and a need to allocate that attention efficiently among the overabundance of information sources that might consume it.”  — Herbert Simon, 1981
“ There’s no such thing as information overload, there’s only filter failure.” — Clay Shirky, 2008
Social media is simply this:   a way to  receive ,  consolidate  and  share  information
