Last Friday I attended the Capitol Communicator Conference at the Artisphere in Rosslyn, VA. The conference was all about PR, marketing, digital practices, journalism, advertising, and analytics.

Exciting new things are happening for Twitter!

I recently found a map by Fast Company which showed the populations of internet websites & communities as countries on the globe for 2014.

For a basic breakdown watch this video! Today I learned that this awesome Twitter analytics tool called “Twitter Cards” has been opened up for brands, companies, and publishers.
