Best Social Apps

Facebook Paper – Paper is Facebook’s new app that lets you follow your News Feed in a much
more modern looking format. Everything looks better in the Paper app and it lets you follow
popular news stories on a variety of topics much better than traditional Facebook.

Twitter – If you’re not on Twitter yet, you really should jump on the bandwagon. Even if you
never post anything, you can get a lot of useful info by following the right people or companies on
Twitter. Actually, you sometimes can get better customer service from companies by posting on
Twitter rather than by calling or emailing nowadays.

LinkedIn – Even if you work for yourself, you should have a profile on LinkedIn. It’s the best
social networking site for professionals. Companies use LinkedIn like crazy for finding good
talent, so keep tabs on your connections via this app.

Pinterest – Pinterest has huge traffic numbers and people seem to love it. Find interesting stuff
whatever your interests might be.

Google+ – Google+ isn’t going to ever replace Facebook, but it’s a good complement. The posts
on Google+ are more polished and newsy rather than photos of someone’s lunch or babies.
