Social Media

When I was in the military, we used Myspace when it first came out as a way to stay in touch with family in the United States and also to post what we were up to and photos. Then along came Facebook. (facebook.com) It was a much more fancy website than regular Myspace. First it was geared towards college students. Then it expanded and now everyone and everything is on Facebook.
Facebook has made several changes over the last few years and some I agree with and some I really wish they wouldn't have done. Timeline, it was in the background so to speak at first. Didn't really play a part in the website as a whole, then it became the first thing that you saw when you logged in. Who is posting what, what is going on, etc. Now as you scroll down your timeline (Newsfeed now because it isn't in any chronological order) you see ads for different products and services. Everywhere you look you see the little Facebook symbol  in the corner or the commercial will say "like/follow us on Facebook." I think that it is a great tool to use as a business because so many people are on facebook and if they like your page, then others will see it and check it out. It is free advertising. Facebook is a user-friendly website and app (for your smart phone) and keeps people connected- not just personal life, but business as well.

So if you aren't on Facebook, I suggest it. Its a fun and easy way to stay connected to what's going on in the world!!
