SOCIAL MEDIA - RESIST IT AT YOUR OWN PERIL

For more on the activities during Social Media Week, click here.

Today was Day 1 of the World Bloggers and Social Media Summit 2012 at PWTC. Learned a lot that I am eager to apply, and made some new friends. Social media is still pretty much dominated by Generation Y. Here's a video that was shared at one of the panel discussions.



The social media revolution is happening all around us. Like it or not, it is here to stay. Resistance is futile. When your adult children and your grandchildren all have Twitter, Facebook and Skype accounts, and you don't, you will be missing out on all the shared news, photos and videos, especially from family members overseas.

And if you own a business, it's imperative that you learn to harness the extensive reach of social media to promote and market your product. The survival and success of your business depends on it.

We are never too old to change and learn new ways of doing things.
