Will Twitter Stay Alive?
Facebook is starting to incorporate several key Twitter functions such as @mentions, #tags, and search which significantly reduce the value of Twitter. Not all of these new features have been rolled out to everybody yet, but expect to see them in your Facebook account over the coming weeks. But truthfully, why would you use Twitter if you can send messages via the @mention functionality, keep conversations together around the #tag functionality, and be able to search public tweets all from Facebook? Additionally, Facebook Fan Pages can now automatically tweet your posts and updates. If this same functionality rolls out for personal accounts, it greatly reduces the likelihood of users going over to Twitter to message people.
The world of Social Media changes quickly. Make sure to stay up to date by having a Social Media team at your side.

When Foursquare needed help integrating itself across the internet, they called upon SMCpros, one of the fastest growing social media agencies in Minnesota.

As the most dynamic, data-driven, and experienced Gen Y speaker on Social Media, Tyler will ensure that any audience receives new insights.
What many don’t know about Tyler, 26, is that SMCpros is his seventh business. As a natural entrepreneur, he’s been making money off his business ventures since the age of 12. In 2007, Tyler became internationally recognized as one of the top 25 student entrepreneurs in the world from the Global Student Entrepreneur Award (GSEA) Competition.
