In social media this week, Mike Koehler from NewsOk spoke to our class about the professional view of social media networks. His discussion focused largely on twitter, a network that he focuses on a lot during his day at the office. He spoke about how the use of these new networks are helping shape journalism for the future. Hearing what he had to say was helpful in that it was nice to hear it from a professional who uses it on a daily basis. To hear him speak of the value in it showed that professionals are very interested in this and that we as college students need to be on board. I am very glad that I decided to take this course. I think it will benefit me in huge ways!
