I use social media on the daily. I use Facebook about once or twice a week, Twitter almost never, and I have an Instagram account, but I haven't made any posts yet. Despite that, I've already got 20 followers!
My social media of choice is Tumblr, the microblogging platform. Granted, I've never made an original post, but I'm on it every day and I'm sharing content that I like with the people that follow me.
My Tumblr blog is only full of things that make me smile or nod my head in agreement; there are many pictures of dogs, political news, memes, and lots of art.
Because I'm not peering into the personal lives of others all the time, seeing the perfectly manicured life that everybody presents to the world, I don't fall prey to the usual pitfalls many Facebook/Instagram users fall into.
One of my other blog posts talks about the negative (and positive) effects of daily social media usage, but I feel like I don't get those from using Tumblr.
I don't use the big three social media sites as much as other people my age, but I'm still using social media every day. And as an aspiring superstar, I need to start building my brand and becoming a public figure.
