Hey Melvin, sounds interesting. I think you're going to get a lot of people who hear ChristTube and think GodTube. IMO, it'll take some effort on your part to help people understand you're not trying to be a Christian YouTube.

I am working with a Christian social media company called ChristTube.com It has not launched as of yet. Scheduled to launch soon. Take a peek, very interesting!

I agree Rowan. In reality not much good comes out of anything – social media or otherwise – if we do it out of a sense of obligation.

I think we have such a great opportunity to use social media for the good, to really make a difference. Thanks!

Your right Paul, there are loads of good reasons to get on social media but dont ever do it because you feel like you have to!

Hey Ken, you're right. I just listed them in the order I thought of them. #11 is a good place to start and so is #7 learning. And of course you can do many of them at the same time too.

Thanks Michelle. It's not as if every organization has to pursue all 12 benefits either, but it's good to be specific about why you're using social media so that you tailor your strategy to reach those goals.
