3 Things I Liked in Social Media, Week ending May 27.

1. DonorsChoose.org Pinterest Contest – The prize? A $500 DonorsChoose.org gift card to spend on teaching essentials! Teachers are so hardworking and important for our future. Pinners are invited to post original classroom projects or other favorite projects with the hashtag #iheartteaching and a statement about why he/she loves teaching. This is a fun and easy way for pinners to not only share fun classroom projects but also have the opportunity to win $500 to make dream projects come true.

 

2. Watch your BAND-AID® come to life – You might feel inspired to run to your nearest CVS Pharmacy, Target or Duane Reade drug store after you read this. Johnson & Johnson launched BAND-AID® Magic Vison, where kids (and adults) can watch their bandages come to life with the help of a mobile app, of course. The company is testing this technology with its The Muppets bandages. Fun fun!

 

3. View reach data directly on your Facebook Brand Page posts – If you’re looking for a quick snapshot on your Brand Page post metrics, this new enhancement will accomplish that. Keep in mind, our Facebook Page Insights will still be valuable and highly considered for reporting reasons. With this Facebook enhancement, I just love the fact that we can see metrics front and center.
