Mastering Social Mediums“Which tool is right for me?”
“When you commit to being your real self online, you discover parts of yourself you never dared to share offline. When you visualize the real person you're about to e-mail or tweet, you bring human qualities of attention and empathy to your online communications.”
- Alexandra Samuel, “10 Reasons to Stop Apologizing for Your Online Life”
