So I proposed a question back, “What if you saw a colleagues profile say on LinkedIn, and it hadn’t been updated in 10-12 months. It was completely out of touch with his/her current role at work...would you feel they had been lacksidasical? Maybe even irresponsible? Would you simply feel they had a lack of commitment to the things they start? “
“What if you were not on any social media platforms at all...would your students and colleagues or even employers feel you were “out of touch” or reluctant to change? “
“Lets say you are using Facebook and connect with your incoming class online; What if you see picturesor video of an under age student drinking? What is your responsibility? Is it personal or professional?”
“ .... If you do not carefully consider the goals you have, how social media can help achieve them, and what the rules of engagement will be you are at risk with an unknown number of potential consequences.”
When you think of a hammer, you probably always think of the side we use to pound in a nail. If you’re new to Twitter and just hearing all the recent hub bub you may think it is not only used to hammer in a brand.
A hammer though can also pull out something buried deep, it gives you leverage. Twitter is also like that...it is among the best search tools we have, its about relevancy.
