Social Media Savvy?

I find that lately, there isn't much to do on Facebook or Twitter. I passed the phase of adding a bunch of applications in which I own a virtual restaurant or have a virtual pet. As for Twitter, there is the occasional tweeting and retweeting, but I don't really have the drive that I once had to look for people to follow. So, in a recent post on Mashable, it does a rundown of some resources that social media may have that we probably overlooked. The thing I love about this post was the advice it gives in addition to the resources.

Many of the resources are perfectly legit and useful! For example, you can learn how to create a FREE music playlist, watch photoshop tutorials on youtube or just overall, be more productive when it comes to social media. I have to admit though, it was the great additional advice that the post offered that I had to read over first. I'd like to know how Facebook changed dating for the worse, wouldn't you? Yah, everything in that tidbit sounds about right. Also, we may laugh about all that Facebook stalking and all, but it can be serious and really creepy. So one of the topics you can read up on is how to prevent and report online stalking, simple and straightforward tips, but so much so that we easily forget it. When you get a chance, you should definitely take a look at the resources we actually have when it comes to social media; in the end, it all goes back to why we're here in the first place. Did you forget already?
