Social Media Idiot (video)
This video about a “social media expert” by zetainteractive on YouTube is pretty funny. I’ve provided a transcription below. The service used to create the video, xtranormal, is even more impressive. It’s a web site that allows the user to create video from text. Very ingenious. I’ve attempted to create a similar video about web accessibility which I’ll post later.
Transcription
Man1: Acme corporation is finally getting into the social media game.
Man2: Have you thought about how you’re going to engage with individuals and provide value to the community?
Man 1: Hell not. We’re just going to build a bunch of fancy social media web assets and then spend a bunch of money on a big media push. We’re going to be rich.
Man2: What’s social about that?
Man 1: Nothing. But it’s going to look super cool, and we’ll have the mainstream media tell everybody that Acme is now engaged in social media. It’s going to be sweet.
Man2: You’re an idiot. No wonder your Twitter account got suspended.
