WATCH WHAT YOU POST ON SOCIAL NETWORKS



Be careful of what you say and post on Social Networks to out stay out of trouble

Writing something about someone on Social networks that can ruin their reputation it could be defamatory.
Defamatory can be anything bad you can say about a particular person that you are not even sure about. Before you write anything on social networks you should write about things that you are purely sure about and stop making accusations you wouldn't make in real life. Making accusations that might ruin someone's reputation on social networks may lead yourself being sued by that particular person you accused him/her.

A photo can also be defamatory. If you post a picture that appears in an offending manner such as a picture of a drunk minister of religion it would probably damage his good name. This kind of picture is not legal to be posted on Social networks because it shows offensive and you could end up being sued or in jail.
If someone defamed you on a social network you have rights to report that particular person and that person he might end up in jail. This is a crime related matter to write bad things about someone and posting pictures that are offensive. And you could be sued by that particular person.

It is very important for every social networks user to be responsible regarding effective use of social social networks. And it also important to be aware of posts that are illegal on social networks. Every user of social networks must use them cautiously in order to stay away from trouble.

Gaga's Highest Fraudulent Twitter Followers


Lady Gaga
Pop singer Lady Gaga becomes first public figure with highest followers on twitter. She made social networking history in the world by reaching a plenty of followers on twitter. She  reached more than 20 million followers on Twitter. This shows that her twitter account has been recognised by many people in the world. Even though there are people using fraudulent  accounts using her name on twitter .read more
 But the reports claim that there are many people who are faking Lady Gaga's twitter account. People who claim to be lady Gaga have more followers than the real Lady Gaga. And this is causing confusion because we are not sure weather is a real Lady Gaga who has the highest twitter followers or is the fake one who has more followers. According to social media management Status People Company discovered that up to 72 percent of Gaga's 29 million Twitter followers are considered fake or inactive. In Lady Gaga's case, it looks as if 34 percent of her followers are "fake," 38 percent are "inactive" and only 28 percent are considered "good". Even though many people are misusing her Twitter account but her name still appears as the first public figure with highest followers on twitter.

Using Social Networks For Organising Events

Social Networks
Organising events using social networks can be one of our advantage to make an event to be successful. Using social networks to organise events can be a great experience for both event organisers and the attendees. What is interesting most about organising events using social networks is that you can reach your stakeholders faster and at the same time. Social networks improved our ways of organising events, unlike in the olden days where many people were  relying most on using invitation cards when they invite people to attend their events. This doesn't mean that people are no longer using invitation cards, some they are still using them but i think the easiest way is to adapt the use of social networks when organising events. The use of social networks can help event organisers to reach many people as possible.

As an event organiser i think it is very helpful to consider the following social networks tools when organising an event:
  • Facebook- by creating a Facebook page for your event where you can post  updates about the event
  • Twitter- by tweeting before the event and during the event to inform those who did not attend the    event about what is happening in the event.
  • Blog- by  posting event updates and uploading pictures and videos.
  • Myspace- by creating your own events and add events to send them to your friends.
  • Linkedin- by using Linkedin Event Application, this will enable you as an event organiser to share your events on this application.read more
 

Using social networks for organising events will help you as an event organiser to keep in touch with all the attendees and stay connected to you through the use of social networks. For me social networks can be regarded as the top event planning tools.

In today's world it is really impotant for companies to adapt the use of social networks as their communication tools. Contemporary companies are adopting the use of social networks as their communication tools to communicate with their stakeholders. Organizations that haven't adopted such tools are now in the minority "One of the reasons why employers and workers are using social networks in the workplace is, in large part, because these channels are increasingly becoming a routine part of how work gets done. There are many advantages to being socially "connected" in the workplace.
