Last semester I made my debut in the wonderful world of social media. I started out a little skeptical, but with each week of blogging and tweeting I got better and better. This semester I am much more active and aware of social media. Not only do I tweet and blog, but I have created a PROpenMic account, a LinkedIn account, and have started to subscribe to many more relevant, interesting, and informative blogs on my RSS feed.
While I do not coment much on ther people’s PROpenMic pages, I do follow the stories on the home page and through the emails. I have connected with several people through the site and I hope to keep doing so.
This semester through Twitter I have been so much more aware of my followers and who I’m following. I have learned to be comfortable with following somebody that I don’t actually know in real life, and even tweeting them. This semester has completely changed by attitude towards social media.
Through my RSS feed and my own personal blog I’ve learned how important it is to express my thoughts and feelings and share them for others to ponder over themselves. I’ve also learned not to be afraid to comment or share my opinion on other people’s posts. Bloggers love comments. That’s all there is to it.
This semester I have really found my place in the social media scene, and I hope I can keep up with my online presence and even expand that presence in the future.
