[QUOTE="RocketCowboy, post: 383585, member: 25095"] Scott (and others debating business over Facebook), you might try using a 3rd party app like HootSuite to aggregate social networks like Facebook and Twitter. I'm only just getting started with HootSuite (work sponsored), but had looked into it in the past. What I like about these 3rd party tools is that they are accessing the social networks via APIs rather than the usually end-user interface. What does that mean to me as a regular user? For Twitter, I don't see promoted tweets (aka ads), only the tweets posted by the people/companies I follow. Likewise for Facebook, I can eliminate the homegrown apps like Messenger and instead track the people I'm interested in without all the clutter and filtering that Facebook provides in the newsfeed. If you decide that you need to keep access to social media for work purposes, it might just help keep those contacts a little more focused. [/QUOTE]
