SOCIAL MEDIA MADNESS
Either we like it or not, by hook or crook, there is no escaping ‘The Social Media Madness’. Even the most reluctant & private people/entities are being sucked into it. Though, it has become evident that the phenomenon is ‘sticky’, but there are still many question marks?
Like a virus, facebooking , blogging & tweeting etc. have sneaked into our lives. Entrepreneurs, politicians, marketers, students, organizations….even house wives are addicted to it. Some say it’s like a black hole, once you are sucked in, there is no coming back; & just like a black hole we are not sure where it’s leading us?
This interactive session aims to explore the madness behind this newly acquired taste. Furthermore, for better or worse the following will be thrown at the audience:
• Social Media: Use it or lose it? • Open up or hold on to it? - Google vs. Apple Case • Success stories: Made in Pakistan...Really? • The Future: Where no ‘Blogger’ has gone before!
