Toast the Night
No matter the platform of how we “spend offline and online” what we do and say in social networks equates to “social capital”. Girlfriends, the time has come to be mindful of the value we create in networks such as Facebook and Twitter, for ourselves.
Socially, what we share, what we say, the smallest of actions from “likes” to retweets to the simplest of updates form a digital representation of what we are!
