Blog about social media and online communication. Nothing fancy, just my thoughts. I have a Masters in Mass Communications (public relations) and work in the health care sector so I have some background with the information discussed in the blog topics. Enjoy!

Does Social Media Take A Spring Break Vacation?
Spring break is finally here! Well not for me because I work but for students at least. Are people still using social media as much as normal or is there a decline in social media use during spring break? Spring break is supposed to be a time for individuals to relax and enjoy their time off, but does this mean they take time off from their computers and phones as well? I notice that without my friends from school in town and without a boring class to sit in, I have not been checking my Facebook, Twitter, etc accounts, mostly because the people I want to see or the time I want to waste is not currently here. What do you think? Do you use social media more or less during spring break?

Social media has slowed down this week... But its not over. Facebook, Twitter, and G+ all feed into our need to be social and boost our egos. I believe that you'll see a social media spike on Thursday of this week for anyone who's on "Spring Break", showing off all the cool stuff they're doing. The real trick in life, at least as we know it, is how to manipulate social media so that you always seem to be doing something meaningful, fun, or just plain bad ass. Seems like a lot of work.
