What the fuck is social media?

I recently wrote a couple of posts trying to explain social media and why folks should be using it.

I said social media is an online behaviour. It’s the internet today – and we should really be referring to the social web.

I wrote about the benefits of social media tools and why you should be using them.

Then along comes this delicious slide show entitled What the F**K is social media? created by Marta Kagan.

With some great metaphors, this slide show is an excellent way to explain social media to anyone. You’ll get the idea within the first few slides.
