The #FollowFriday Series highlights today’s up-and-coming, active and all-around noteworthy Twitter accounts the AudioAcrobat staff deems worthy of following; while at the same time peering deeper into the soul(-cial media) of each account and providing a brief-yet-informative analysis.
Welcome back for the fiftieth #FollowFriday tweet / WordPress mashup of 2012 here on the AudioAcrobat Weblog!
In today’s post, we will dive deeper into the tweets of Mountain View, CA-based news alert service, LaunchGram (@LaunchGram) and the Twitter accounts they have chosen to follow … a mirror, if you will, into the soul(-cial media) behind a small team of individuals who are taking on a BIG project of keeping the world up-to-date on forthcoming product news alerts!
Yep. That’s right, we just said it … “soulcial media”. We also said, “a small team of individuals who are taking on a BIG project of keeping the world up-to-date on forthcoming product news alerts” in the same sentence.
