The Benefits of Social Media

I am a little behind in my blogs. I was away at a friends wedding and sang her down the aisle. It was a treat! Oh, she also married Phil Collins's son and I had to belt it out on front of him! For real. The lovely couple then flew a few of us to Bermuda to hang out. It was as far from the "Starving Artist" life as you could possibly get. 

Chapter 4 gave me a lot of insight on the benefits of Social Media. There is an awful lot to think about! So much has changed in the last little while, with the way artists can communicate with the world. I will admit, it is a little overwhelming for someone who doesn't own a computer. The videos from commoncraft were a great help and gave me  a better understanding of how all these networks work together. 

I was completely unaware of the benefits of flickr. I thought is was just a place for pictures. I had no clue it was such a staple in social networking. My plan is to start getting more involved in all of these social network sites by spending a certain few hours a day. We'll see how it goes!

Love and Rock,
