The document provides an overview of social media, including its history and how it facilitates interactions between users through sharing information. Key points discussed include:
- Social media technologies allow for conversations by letting users share and engage with each other's information.
- Examples of early social media systems from the 1970s through 2000s are described that paved the way for modern platforms.
- Social media matters for areas like education, with some college rankings now partly based on social media data about students, courses, salaries, etc.
- For organizations, social media can be measured based on goals like leads, conversions, awareness, and balancing those successes against money spent.

Social Media Matters:
50% of Forbes college
rankings based on social
media sources.
the staff at CCAP gathered data from a variety of sources. They based 25% of the rankings on 4 million student
evaluations of courses and instructors, as recorded on the Web site RateMyProfessors.com. Another 25% is
based on post-graduate success, equally determined by enrollment-adjusted entries in Who's Who in America,
and by a new metric, the average salaries of graduates reported by Payscale.com.
