Week 2: Five Business Social Media Survey

Comments:
I deliberately chose companies in diverse industries, at different levels of maturity and sizes.  I wanted to compare and contrast how social media was used.  I chose companies where I had a personal connection or wanted to learn more about.  I discovered that
1)Facebook and Twitter are the most universally used.  
2)YouTube was used by more mature companies with larger budgets.  I suspect
this is because video capture and editing require more staff.  If the video is longer
than a minute (or maybe less; a minute of video is “long”), professional editing
Is required.
3)LinkedIn is used to demonstrate a company or individual’s knowledge,  “advertising” their industry or expertise. It is also used to post job opportunities.
4)Google + was used by 2/5 companies; one was an emerging PR firm linking
education and industry; one was a mature law firm
