Infographics – Use of Social Media & Facebook

Filed under: Facebook, Infographic, Infographic Fridays, Social Media — Tags: , , , — Katherine Johnson @ Friday, January 27th, 2012

So, who do people friend on Facebook? It starts out with real life actual friends, then flows on to friends of friends, businesses & then randoms!

But what is it that gets you un-friended? Am sure we’ve all been there or given our friend list a cull every couple of years. It seems being offensive is the number one reason to become someone’s un-friend along with not being well known or trying to sell someone something. For me it’s more about interaction – if people don’t interact and am going through a cull they may or may not get removed.

Infographic – Social Media Is A Fad?

Filed under: Infographic, Infographic Fridays, Social Media, Updates — Tags: , — Katherine Johnson @ Friday, November 25th, 2011

In a world which has seen Social Media infiltrate pretty much most aspects of our lives (hands up whose parents are on Facebook? I know my mum is), there are still some who feel Social media doesn’t have a place in business. They see it as a passing fad and one they’re hoping disappears sooner rather than later.

This is a little naïve, and we’re not the only ones who think so! At the basic level, companies have their own Facebook pages, LinkedIn profiles and Twitter accounts. If you’re not “buying in” to Social media, you can be pretty certain your competitors are or will before long. (more…)

It was the next logical step after LinkedIn News, really. In fact, I’m quite surprised that it’s taken this long for LinkedIn to add this functionality. (more…)
