So what is Social Media, exactly?

It is not “Shiny Object Syndrome”

It is What technology enables people to do

Social Media facilitates interaction between people.

It describes the online tools that people use to share content, profiles, opinions, insights, experiences, perspectives and media itself.

These tools include blogs, message boards, podcasts, micro blogs, lifestreams, bookmarks, networks, communities, wikis, ratings, reviews, pictures, videos, etc.
