Uni Of Leics: Reflection on Social Media Learning 4

So it continues....

Unit 3 of this course has now enabled me to set up a Hootsuite account. Must admit I had never heard of this or any similar software applications like it before. But what a revelation this actually is!

https://hootsuite.com

I did not expect to be able to manage all my online content from one place, but this has enlightened me as to the possibilities, power & functionality of Hootsuite....I will certainly be using this regularly going forward. I have been somewhat concerned of the amount of time that having a presence on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Blogs as well as emails, google+ etc etc would be over-demanding on my available spare time in between work, MBA studies, & actually having a life!

There seems to be loads more knowledge to discover here so I have added @dottotech onto my list of Twitter feeds to follow. Once I have familiarised myself further with the layout etc I will search Youtube for more useful videos etc & may even subscribe to Steve Dotto's presentations etc in the future.

I have now installed Hootsuite onto my smartphone too so I can review all sites easier & more efficiently when I am on the move as well. 

My professional network in linkedIn has been enhanced since my last blog, & I am encouraged at the endorsements I have received from my connections, and have also contacted & endorsed others in their skill sets.

Finally I have also started to tag my blog posts to start to link like items together....things are steadily progressing!

Cheers
Brian
