Do you twitter? Are you on facebook? Are you getting left behind in your business?

The New York Times is going to eliminate their social media editor position….first impress of the announcement sounds like there is no need for social media in the workplace, but it’s actually just the opposite.

I was out to lunch with a friend of mine, Josh, and I told him some great advice on how to get more online social interaction…

“If you tweet or post something on Facebook about one of two topics, the weather, or food, you will get responses from your friends before we leave this fine eating establishment.”

I said something like that, may not be the exact words…but no matter, it was truth. Not only did he get Facebook comments on his weather update here in Florida, he got a personal text message about said update. It worked better than what I even thought.
