So, we're reading this book for class called The Art of Social Media, and there is actually a lot of cool stuff that you can do online and with social media. I'm not going to give you the entire details of the book, but social media is much more than just Facebook, Twitter and Snapchat. There is many different sites that specialize in different arts of getting people quality information. I encourage everyone to actually go out and explore new things on the internet. I understand I've mostly talked about how the internet is a dark, scary place; but, if you use it correctly, it could expand your mind and your network.
Another thing that the author of the book, Guy Kawasaki, focuses on in the first two chapters is the importance of a good profile. Okay, yes that's obvious, but you really need to focus on the fine details as well, like making sure that your profile is complete, having a good profile picture, and having the same one throughout all of your social media. The most important thing though is to promote yourself. That is what a good social media page is, the promotion of yourself. Now, honestly, I'm not going to listen to every single thing that Guy has written in this book; unless I have to do it for this class. But he has very helpful advice, especially when I am going into the professional world at any point in time now. Also, it's never too late to get on to social media and have quality accounts.
