What is Social Media?
Social Media are computer technologies that allow users to create and share information by means of online communities or networks. People who use social media create an account or profile with the service provider, and then the service facilitates linking that profile to other individuals or groups. User generated content and sharing is very important – people can make and share a variety of information including text communications, pictures, videos, audio files, and more, and they are often able to comment on content shared by other people. In this tutorial, we will explore some of the most popular social media services, what they’re primarily used for, and provide you information on how you can learn more about them.
