Social Media

It is interesting to see the disconnect between generations when concerning social media. The new craze has perplexed many practitioners leaving room for a new generation to come in and teach. This is an opportunity for us soon to be graduates and many organizations are even hiring young professionals to specifically blog, tweet, facebook, etc. The point is, if you are an undergrad you are more than likely naturally programmed to use social media. If not, I suggest you get on the ball and start learning how to use these sites.
