As I was relaxing over the holiday weekend, I thought about how social media has changed me. It is funny that I have only been using social media for the past six to eight months, but it has really changed me in that time.
With social media, I feel like I am in touch more with local and distant friends and clients. I am able to answer questions quicker, but also learn and receive answers much faster as well.
With Twitter and Facebook, I can follow the companies of products that I use or am thinking about using, and if I have a question, I usually receive an answer back within the day (minus companies like TimeWarner that I am still waiting on 
). Instead of waiting days for a generic email, I receive a real response. I love it!
I am really excited to see where the creation of jobs using social media will go. I know many companies starting to look for Social Media Director positions and I think we will start to see more of these types of jobs in the coming year as budgets open up and also as they see how important social media is to integrate into their marketing plans.
It is so exciting to see how social media has changed me and I am sure it has changed you as well. What do you enjoy most & least about using social media?
