Editor's Notes
6 out of the 10 top websites are social YT, craigslist, fb, ms, wikipedia, whenever someone opens a computer, it is 60% of the time for social reasons. The question we need to be asking ourselves are we teaching our students to create content that is not social. Much news is forwarded or shared. Teaching them to not only produce, but to share.
PR, print, broadcast, and digital, but I weave social media in my class.
They treat all social media as FB. Different cultures and languages.
Failure in imagination. Editing class. Continue learning outside the classroom. Contribute helpful information to any web page We started by having a wave of people change their profile pictures to our campaign banner and post status updates in support of the candidates and advertising their website. It will auto-publish a very glamorous multi-media newspaper from all the # tags or all the tweeps followed by the main twitter account and send it out to those who subscribe on an updated daily basis.

Education goals? What are your individual goals? FB is great for relationships and promotions whereas Twitter is great developing information authority, It is about understanding cultures and subcultures.
If you ask me best stuff to use social media, I will ask you what are your goals? Assume all social media is like facebook. Have them set To become an expert, build relationships, informationational void
Anyone can publish, but it is becoming more difficult to establish yourself. Research shows that these people in these communities to tend to talk and to link to each other. Because you have an account is not enough. Establish your credibility. Identify a name. Professional and short bio. Professional pic. Focused content.
. It isn’t enough to simply provide samples of your work, so having the opportunity to publicize information about yourself that would improve your credibility is absolutely necessary. When I searched “Stephanie Snyder” on Google almost two months ago, my real identity could not be found in the first 100 links, but now when I search “Stephanie Lynn Snyder,” four of the top ten links are actually related to me. I was shocked to see the dramatic improvement in my online accessibility after only a few weeks of activity on the before mentioned social media sites. “ . Family members actually searched my name at one point during this project and were excited to call me and report that I was “all over Google!” I explained to them that it was actually part of a project I was doing for Online Media and some family members wanted to hear how I had set this up. “
Sources may google you and you claim your identity. “ Also, when explaining a story to a hesitant source, I sometimes direct them to one of my online profiles to assure them of my credibility.” – Victoria Pelham One night I received a text message on my phone. The message was a Direct Message from my twitter page and it was from the WEEI internship coordinator. After this experience, I developed more respect and understanding of what an online presence can do for me. – will
MEASURE. PR.
At first they did not absorb or adopt as much as I would like them. If they create content, they have to promote it.
Tend to use the word “I” and have difficulty how it affects journalism in general. They absorb the information and relate its purpose to themselves as individual.
Users who are invited by people with whom they share pre-exiting social relationships tend to stay longer and active in the network. – Lento et. Al Feel more responsilibility because more individual responsible
