This book trailer stands on its own as a startling list of facts about social media.
Based on the information studied in Socialnomics, by Erik Qualman, Social Media Revolution 2 proposes that blogging, Facebook and Twitter aren’t fads, but rather a complete change in communication, marketing and several other facets of life and business.
I was shocked at the statement that if Facebook were a country, it would be the world’s third largest – knocking the U.S. down to fourth. And the fact that Britney Spears has more Twitter followers than the population of Ireland makes me ache in a weird, sad way. It’s odd but unsurprising, like finding out more eBooks were sold this Christmas than paper books. (According to this video, also true.)

Michelle Schusterman
Michelle is a musician, writer, and teacher just trying to see the world while doing what she loves for a living. She's taught ESL in Salvador, Brazil and kindergarten in Suwon, Korea, and now she's a full-time freelance writer living in Seattle (just to keep the city alliteration going). She'll try pretty much any food once and believes coffee is its own food group.
