Online I see people committing 'social media suicide' all the time by one of two ways. Firstly by responding to all criticism, meaning you're never going to find time to complete important milestones of your own, and by responding to things that don't warrant a response. This lends more credibility by driving traffic.
As someone who asks questions for a living, there are few things that annoy me more than people who won't ask for themselves. Social media is a great help, but so is something as simple as turning on your television or powering up your laptop to watch a smart news show.
The sports space is so full of opinion that you aren't hearing from the athletes just speaking for themselves. We are such a Twitter-oriented society with radio talk shows, TV talk shows and social media - what you are missing is the authentic, unfiltered aspect of who these people are.
It all started with social media, building a fan base via Tumblr and YouTube, doing covers, and releasing a project with original music. Labels started to peel interest then. It was around the same time I was applying for college.
Being on Twitter and social media, you obviously get to see a lot more of what people are thinking of you and of your show.
As far as putting stuff on social media, I think Instagram is really cool because I like the visual aspect. You're taking pictures, and you can put a filter on them, and it's super creative.
I have a message for all the birdies who try to get in touch with people online who they think might help them to meet me or give my personal information. That will never happen. Don't believe anything anyone tells you on social media about me because not even my parents know what I am up to.
I've yet to see a correlation in my industry between great social media and great numbers.
Whether it's singing, modeling, acting, you name it, they always label you as the YouTuber, the social media kid, the social media star. It's something that I've heard - a lot - but I kind of just put it to the side.
Not using social media in the workplace, in fact, is starting to make about as much sense as not using the phone or email.
It is a tremendous honor to be named poet laureate, but one that I find humbling as well, because it's the kind of thing that makes me feel like - even as it's been bestowed upon me - I must continue to live up to what it means... Being the younger laureate in the age of social media is a new challenge.
Social media is here to stay, and the social phenomenon that is bringing this about is consumers' willingness to share more about themselves, share more about what they're doing... people are even willing to disclose where they're at. And this phenomenon is going to create huge commerce opportunities on the web.
The image of myself that I give on social media isn't actually who I am; it's not 100 percent me, obviously.
Social media absolutely changed my life and many others in a positive way.
Social media stars are kind of taking the traditional route, like movies.
When I was in high school, I got bullied through social media - on the Internet, on my Facebook. That was hard for me, and I think social media has made it easy for people to bully other people on-line because they can just post anything they want anonymously.
A 'social media fast' is a fast, I suppose like any other. In this case, you're simply giving up whether it be a device or a particular type of social media site. And I do this at least once weekly.
There are a lot of pros and cons about social media; it's just how you choose to handle it and how you have to be prepared for the negatives as well.

Every news organization needs a social media strategy.
I think there's a misconception that I'm opposed to social media.
Social media companies must combine their mastery of the latest in real-time, location based or augmented reality technologies in the service of clear and consistent storytelling.
We're surrounded by distractions. Whether it's emails, phone calls, text messages, social media notifications, or people entering and leaving your workspace, those distractions end up eating a good portion of your time.
Too many brands treat social media as a one way, broadcast channel, rather than a two-way dialogue through which emotional storytelling can be transferred.
I'm trying to embrace social media because it gives artists a little more power than we've had in the past.
As more people use social media to tell the story of the future, the wants and needs of more people will be reflected.
I had a teacher, he was 86 years old and his name was Luigi in New York City, and he said, 'Never stop moving. You get to reinvent yourself.' So you have to find ways to reinventing yourself. Especially today, because it's a whole different market - social media is so important.
Democratic states must have access to content exchanged between terrorists on social media and instant messaging.
We all have personal brands and most of us have already left a digital footprint, whether we like it or not. Proper social media use highlights your strengths that may not shine through in an interview or application and gives the world a broader view of who you are. Use it wisely.
You don't have to be famous to have problems on social media. It affects everyone, and it's on there forever, and the things you say when you're 15 are not necessarily what you'd say when you're 25 or 35.
When it comes to brands and having the opportunity to be an entrepreneur, social media has really become a great outlet for people to become their own boss.

And of course, the ones that become viral videos aren't exactly flattering for law enforcement.
