What is SC Wonderland?

My name is Nettie Britts, and my passion is social networking. Over the past four years, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, FourSquare and the like have created a new place where the user is in charge. Endless possibilities exist for the individual, business and society at large. I created SC Wonderland to share this world I love.

New Connections

Facebook enabled you to reconnect with old friends from high school. Then Twitter started out with the tagline, “What are you doing?” And if your friends found it funny, they retweeted it to their friends, and suddenly you had twenty new connections. Facebook groups replaced the email chains of old. For every event or city, there is a hashtag, and someone tweeting it, sharing it with you.

New Marketing

Marketing through social media is an improvement on word of mouth. Got a new house to sell? Make it a Facebook event and invite your friends. Need to build your client base? Reach out to those on Twitter. Spread the word fast and efficiently.

New Revolutions

In the recent revolutions in the Middle East, Twitter allowed citizens to get out news. Journalists could not get in and infrastructure was down. A few messages, sent around the world to those in power,
helped to break the back of those in power in Egypt, Libya and beyond.
