Late night talk show host Conan O’Brien coined a phrase for social media that is sticking with me. He spoke of the future merging of social media giants YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook into “one giant time-wasting website called… YouTwitFace.” Well, if “YouTwitFace” = all things Social Media, then I’m a big believer.
