Newbie Guides to Social Media
Having trouble convincing your church that they need to leverage social media for ministry purposes? Does your boss or senior pastor look at you funny when you use the words twitter, tweet, and twit? Check out the newbie’s guides at CNET.
Here are some direct links to the Newbie Guides for some of the more commonly known sites:
1. Facebook
2. Twitter
3. Google Reader (RSS)
These guides are dated (published in 2007), but still useful in communicating the overall big picture of how they work and functionally what they do.
Similarly, Jeremiah Owyang posted a FAQ guide to Twitter. It is very helpful.
