LEARNING TO PERFECT YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA


While reading, “The Art of Social Media”, I found it was interesting that commenting on someone else’s blog post can have such a large impact.  There are so many technical aspects which go with commenting.  I found it even more intriguing that you should reply to all comments on your post even the bad ones. In, “The Art of Social Media”, it is also said you should try to stay positive even when you disagree about something.  A disagreement might be one of the most difficult things to deal with on social media because both sides have arguments as to why they believe they are right.  Like “The Art of Social Media” says, it is best to ‘agree to disagree’. 

Another topic that was interesting in, “The Art of Social Media”, is about LinkedIn.  The book says that LinkedIn is a powerful too.  I normally always write LinkedIn off as only a way to find jobs and that is about it.  I would not really consider it that much of a social media platform because of its focus towards finding a job and building your professional network.  I only created one because I needed it for my class, and I do not update my profile frequently.  After reading though I discovered that LinkedIn can be valuable because it is a professional site and many individuals are looking for jobs on it.  This makes LinkedIn a great place to find quality content.   LinkedIn also helps to filter out videos or posts that would be inappropriate because no one wants bad content connected to their professional careers.

  1. I love this blog post! I agree with both of your points with commenting on post and LinkedIn profiles! I find it hard to comment back when people comment on my photos but I'm sure it is different with a business company's page. I love my LinkedIn because I am able to find internship opportunities and network different companies and business professionals.

Using Social Media to Find Gluten Free Recipes

Being gluten free can be difficult as it is, so why struggle to find things to make or eat. One of the most challenging things about being gluten free is finding a place to go out to eat at. Therefore, I often decide to stay in and make my own meal. Luckily, there are so many gluten free baking blogs and accounts on Instagram and other site, that it makes making your own meal so much easier. The thing about baking gluten free is that gluten free flour does not have the same elasticity as flour with gluten. When you look at a gluten free recipe you will likely see Xanthium Gum or other additives that create the elasticity, so your bread does not crumble as easily. Recently, companies have started to make gluten free flour that you can replace regular flour with one-to-one. This make a world of difference when you are converting a recipe to gluten free. I follow quite a few gluten free baking accounts on social media. Below I have compiled a list of my favorite accounts to find g

ALUMNI BASKETBALL GAME AT BUCKEYE CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL

On Feb. 24 th , I live-tweeted the boys alumni basketball game. There were two teams playing. Since the players only play for fun, they do not have actual team names. Instead they wore red and white shirts to distinguish themselves. I referred to the teams based on their shirt color throughout my tweets. The game was held at Buckeye Central High School in their gym.   It was a close game for most of the game, with lots of back-and-forth. The final score was 86 to 82, with the red team coming out on top! Both teams did an excellent job and had a great game! Congratulations to the Red Team!

TRAINING TO RUN A 5K

Running use to be something I always enjoyed doing. I was in cross-country, track, and always liked the conditioning part of basketball. Even after I was out of sports, I continued to run consistently up until last year. I am not sure why I stopped running I just ended up not running anymore. So, since my classes are all online now, I have no more excuses to not run. In order to keep motivated, I am running with my sister Paige and we set a goal that we want to complete a 5K without walking. Since we do not know when the next 5K will be because of COVID-19, we decided we would have our own 5K on May 1 st . We are training five days a week, Monday through Friday. We also made challenges for different days of the week, so we continue to challenge ourselves. One of our challenges is that we run as far as we can in one direction without walking. Then we are forced to either walk or run all the way back. This is something my coach use to do when I was in cross country, so that we
