The Dirty Secret of Social Media:

Almost EVERYONE will MISS 
almost EVERYTHING you do 
    on social media. :-( 


 @sree * Facebook.com/sreetips * bit.ly/sreesoc * #sreetips
But social media can help direct
ATTENTION IN WAYS THAT
WEREN’T POSSIBLE BEFORE.

And better use of hashtags can
make a difference.
 

    @sree * Facebook.com/sreetips * bit.ly/sreesoc * #sreetips
Most media orgs are
not using Hashtags
as well as they could.

So we can learn
From all kinds of folks.

Every Major Story, project
COVER IS A CANDIDATE FOR A
HASHTAG STRATEGY.

just because every story can have a
hashtag doesn’t mean EVERY
STORY should.
