A Teen's Guide to the Power of Social Networking

Teen readers are introduced to the true power of social networking activities and their immense utility-- beyond mere status updates and photo sharing-- for information sharing and educational, employment, and investing and saving opportunities. Readers are shown how to make themselves, their efforts, and their projects front-and-center amongst "followers," teachers, college recruiters and admissions officials, potential employers, even potential business partners or investors. Emphasis is placed on diligently and judiciously tending and curating one's digital footprint, leaving behind no trace of negativity, scandal, or disreputableness, but rather demonstrating the evidence of one's positivity, industriousness, creativity, and community-minded spirit.
