What social media?

What social media do you use and how often?

I use Twitter, LinkedIN, Facebook and FourSquare.

VMotion

jp, it all depends. Do you use it for personal or business purpose? Those are quite different and are pursuing different goals.
Personally use twitter mostly, a bit of facebook, a bit of linkedin and very little bit of google plus.

The term Social Media refers to the use of web-based and mobile technologies to turn communication into an interactive dialogue. Social media take on many different forms, including Internet forums, weblogs, social blogs, microblogging, wikis, podcasts, photographs or pictures, video, rating and social bookmarking.

I use Twitter very day, I love it, I use it much more than forums for instance. I like how you can interact with so many without needing (on the whole) to send requests and go through the "how do I know you" nonsense

Twitter & FB on a daily basis, StumbleUpon - every couple a days, Linkedin - once a week or so, Then I have a youtube which I practically never touch!

Boards and Facebook mainly and I started using Google+ but not on it daily, Twitter every now and again. I have my own website and a life blog. I use a site to every now and again for photography but I've been inactive for a few weeks.

I use various facets of social media for business and pleasure to be honest, I use HootSuite to connect to them all via one tool. Personal favorite is Twitter.

Yes I am aware of that, I didn't state that it didn't as far as I am aware. I love podcasts but don't really make them myself. Never been a massive fan of Flickr and such sites.

Twitter is very useful for simply connecting to the masses in my opinion, like you say.

Really yet to be convinced by G+, however the plans they have for business and games, and APIs means that they may catch up very quickly soon.
