Twitterrrrr!!!





When Twitter came out it was kind of a hard transition. Since everyone was on Facebook during this time it was a major step and change because you couldn't do as much as Facebook. After awhile i just started babbling on and on and typing and typing getting up to hundreds of tweets. If you are new to twitter you have to get the hang of just talking about certain topics or (tweeting). Maybe follow some people and go to trending topics to see what all the gossip is on the street. Twitter is very opinionated, you can view how someone feels on any issue and you can express how you feel as well. Any interest you have you can find by simply typing in a # Hashtag.



 Jack Dorsey, the creator of twitter, created it in 2006. As a child his obsession with how emergency dispatches communicated led to his idea of twitter. Twitter is one of the largest social marketing platforms.

 Any news that you need, rather entertainment or sports you can always find it there. Three users that I follow are: Power105.1, Wendy Williams, Lala Anthony and 4starcasting. I follow Power 105.1 because I intend to intern there or work there with the infamous CharlemagnethaGod. Wendy Williams and Lala Anthony are two of my idols that I look at for inspiration to push forward in my career. Four Star casting is a huge casting company that keeps me informed with casting calls to pursue acting.

LinkedIn for Dummies!





LinkedIn is a social network used for professional networking. Everyone and anyone can use it, but it is mainly used for business purposes. People who are looking to connect, trade and work use this as a professional outlet. The things I like about linkedIn is that they keep a clean profile and you can put your skills, endorsements and organizations for viewers to view. 

Many of my connections on there, have set their profile up to basically promote their skills for their careers. On one profile my friend has put her courses that she has taken. All of them relate to the field that she wants to work in. This is positive because now bosses can see what experience and credibility she has. Another good thing that I viewed was an upload of a resume. This way someone who is interested in hiring, will be able to see this as well. 


The way they are set up I feel that all aspects of linkedIn are important from listing previous or ongoing jobs and the rest of the contributions you have. With my linked in site I hope to find other people with my interest that can hopefully work with me and further advance my career opportunities.
