The Ordination Web Page The Psychology of Social Media: Why We Like, Comment, and Share Online What would happen if you were to “like” everything you saw on social media? The developer Rameet Chawla found out when he built a script that liked every photo that passed through his Instagram feed. He grew his followers by about 30 a dayHe got invited to more partiesHe got stopped on the street by people who recognized him from InstagramHe got message after message from friends encouraging him to post more. He said it was “almost like they were frustrated, like they were longing for something to like in return.” The likes, comments and posts we share on social media can often seem inconsequential, but they matter. What if we could understand the psychology of social media and use that knowledge to bring customers closer, give them more of what they want, and create better relationships?

What shared memory means to business teams It doesn’t matter how big your business is. Now, it’s easier than ever to forget completed work. Bypassing the chaos Meet Nicole Hanusek. Nicole created a series of business processes and templates in Evernote Business, which she and any of her team members can access from anywhere.
