Task #4 - Social Networks

I made a twitter account a few years ago but I rarely use it. It doesn't feel 'meaty' enough with information for me to be bothered with. I also don't have data available on my phone.
Since I have my own photography business I figured I should have a presence on Twitter, but I don't really know how to use it to my advantage. I use Facebook more.

Task #2 - Streaming

I`m at a conference in the States this week and learned about the book by Dr. Randy Pausch and Jeffrey Zaslow, columnist for the Wall Street Journal called ``The Last Lecture``.  I`m going to get his book because this  guy was amazing!!!!

Streaming has become so popular because it makes everything so current and accessible so quickly for free.  I love Youtube and have used it before and will continue to use it, when time permits.
