Trying the Social Media Kool-Aid


I’ve said in a previous post that the DoingMedia blog isn’t ALWAYS about creating or producing media. I think the “people” aspect of the media process is most important. Connecting and networking with others is a great way to learn, find resources, get work or give work.

So on that note I thought this article from the New York Times might be helpful for those who haven’t stuck their toe in the social media kool-aid. (How’s that for mixing metaphors!) Here’s the excerpt:

Published: August 14, 2008
If you have avoided social-networking sites like LinkedIn and Facebook with the excuse that they are the domain of desperate job hunters or attention-seeking teenagers, it’s time to reconsider.
You can find your’s truly on LinkedIn, Facebook, Plaxo and Twitter drinking my own kool-aid. (I always liked lime.)
