There is no doubt that social media is a permanent part of our daily lives. It has blurred the area between work and play to the point where sometimes we are not sure if we are working or socializing. Perhaps sometimes it is one in the same. Quite a few educators have dipped their toes into the water and experimented with using social media to benefit them professionally, but unfortunately many do not stick around long enough to see the long term benefits.
