What social Media “Is” and

What social media “Isn’t”

What Social Media “Is”

Conversations

People having conversations online is Social Media

Communities

People having conversations connect with each other across various platforms

Contribution

People in communities help others and add value by sharing their knowledge

Collaboration

What Social Media “Isn’t”

For Everyone

Unless you are social, open and transparent, it isn’t

Free

While the medium is free, the human effort isn’t.

Easy

While setting up a blog or a facebook page is easy, using it effectively to make the most out of it, isn’t

One-way

While most people continue to use it like traditional media for one-way communication, it isn’t
