Most companies and public relations pros are really busy. In fact, a lot of them are too busy for social media.
But let’s be honest: as technology changes, we need to change with it. Part of that is utilizing our skills to add those one or two extras added to our plate.
YouTube is one of those tools.

It’s quite easy to say that 2010 was the year of the Internet:
But most of all, people connected, shared and helped one another.
The Internet became the place to make important announcements and before the world new it, online was the new, ultimate “it” place.
On December 14, 2010 Twitter came out with their “Most Powerful Tweets of 2010″ — it’s definitely worth a look to see the true power of what makes viral — simply that, viral.

Love should not hurt. Yet bad romances seem to be as common in this world as the ones true romantic stories as made from.
In his new controversial music video, “Love the Way You Lie,” Eminem depicts a glance into his relationship with his two-time, ex-wife Kim Mathers.
Starring Megan Fox and Dominic Monaghan, the video seamlessly intertwines love and violence. The video opens with a couple (Monaghan and Fox) sleeping peacefully together. Next, they are violently fighting, tossing bed sheets around and the viewers see Fox’s character overpowered into early submission. Later, the couple is seen pressed up against a wall, where the man punches his fist into it, before they break into a passionate kiss.
The entire time scenes like this go on throughout the video, Rihanna sings the chorus which includes the phrase, “That’s all right because I like the way it hurts.”
Lady GaGa made a hit single out of bad romances, this is the fourth number one hit single for Em, and seventh for Rihanna — but is this really alright? [Read more...]

In recent years, there has been a trend online and offline to make parodies of well-known entities. The idea has been to take the very best, the very worst, and the very ridiculous out of them, turning the new creations into hybrids built on well-intentioned humor.
From Harry Potter‘s Puppet Pals and “The Mysterious Ticking Noise” (over 83 million views), to Massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) mockery-extrordinary “The Guild” (over 40 million views combined), to Pride and Prejudice and ZOMBIES –
What?
Yes, zombies. It takes the original work by Jane Austen and [Read more...]

The news is older that journalism itself. The oldest form of social media is people spreading information about what is happening and who it is happening too to the circle of people they know.
For example, if spread of information is what ‘news’ essentially is, then Twitter is no different. It’s a real-time, rapid, wonderful ecosystem of information. Twitter is a living, breathing swirl of information and clutter. Clutter, that can, in essence, be cut down and trimmed according to individual needs.
The big question in and around the communications industry is how will social media have an effect on us?
