What is Social Media, and Why Should I Care?
Two weeks ago we had our "What is Social Media, and Why Should I Care?" presentation as part of the Lunch & Learn series for Travelers' Insurance employees. Host Carol Vassar-Pettit provided an easy-to-understand approach to a variety of social networking sites, including Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and Linkedin. Participants were able to ask questions and received quick and informed answers.
Carol included a few youtube videos, the "anatomy of a tweet," and an example of how to upload a photo to Facebook. Everyone came away from the program with a much better understanding of the relevancy and availability of social media in the professional and personal worlds.
