Today we explored the site Hootsuite. The site allows you to link multiple social media and blog streams into one account. From the dashboard you are able to control and time posts on all of the social media platforms. Not only can you time posts and uploads you are able to navigate and the different platform from this one site. If anything it promotes organisation and professional continuity between your different social media and other media platforms. It allows a continuous and ever-growing online identity. Personally this type of program I believe is catered for businesses and people trying to get there image out there due to it being a simple and user friendly site to manage all their social and promotional events. Personally not being a huge social media contributor I find it simple to navigate my way through the different individual apps. Ultimately, I can understand the benefit of the site but would probably use it in a more professional environment rather than for myself personally.

Also this week we were asked to look through articles and stories that have an interactive element to it. I found the easiest way to relate this task to travel was to do a rather simple and straightforward quiz. I completed the “Whats your travel personality?” quiz (Take the quiz yourself , Buzzfeed). The purpose of why I chose this is because it highlights the elements of the interactive way of connecting with a subject. It gets you thinking of yourself as a person and how that relates to who you are as a traveller. I am happy to report to you I am ‘The Wanderer’. The thing I found most interesting is that once you complete one quiz it doesn’t finish but it suggests other travel quizzes and you get stuck in an endless cycle of finding out everything about the type of travel you do.
