2012: the year social media changes, completely
DESCRIPTION
This presentation, 2012: The Year Social Media Changes, Completely, means to give a high level perspective on the landscape of Social Media in 2012, and how this landscape is likely to change. The topics include the fragmentation of Social Media, Twitter and Apple OS integration, LinkedIn positioning itself as the go to platform for job seekers and recruiters, Facebook's upcoming IPO and new ad offerings, Google's integration with itself - particularly through Google Apps, Android smartphones, Google Plus and preexisiting Google AdWords advertising strategies. And because I felt compelled to, I even addressed Pinterest & what influence this platform will have on visual imagery in web design.TRANSCRIPT

The Future of Social Media is a whole different animal.
This is not the future of Social Media
This isn’t either.
This may be the future of Social Media … but probably isn’t.
This is the Future of Social Media
The Future of Social Media is search engine fodder.

Social.
