Snapchat

How to Deal with Abusive Tweeters
One thing that is important to remember when running a Twitter account for a business is to include “tweeting hours.” This is especially important if you are an organization that has a lot of people tweeting you, complaining and engaging.

Stalking the Internet
One of the most important things that helps me stay ahead of the curve and educated on the social media and PR industry is ongoing education.
