Social Media

Categories: Marketing

Media you generate yourselves...for, um, social purposes.

Facebook. Twitter. And the stalwart, Alt.com. All social networks. Add in WeChat in Asia. And Kik. And always hundreds of upstarts. They're all hosting places for your content that others want to read. The host or platform then charges advertisers bank for being allowed to reach you.

That's the biz. That's social and media when you marry them in an unholy way.
