You can view the video below and help yourself understand what social media is all about. Better yet, use this to help yourself explain what social media is to those who might not be in tune with what social media means.

One thing that came up in reference to the last post we made about the MOMAR blog was the added advantage of having a RSS feed on the site, something that was not possible with the previous design and easily implemented by our ability to install WordPress into the site.

We understand that a lot of people don’t know what a RSS feed is, yet alone how it can benefit to have one implemented for the content on your website. Thanks to our friends at CommonCraft, they made a great video helping to explain RSS in plain english.

RSS has the ability to take your message to the world in a more effective manner than just simple page views or Google searches. There are people around the world who might be interested in what kind of content you are producing, and this technology is a great way for your target audience to subscribe and stay up to date with your message.
