Social media reminders for Rappler's awesome interns

"Welcome to journalism!"

Earlier today, the Social Media unit of Rappler organized a social media briefing for the network's awesome interns.

Special Projects Head Michael Josh Villanueva facilitated the activity to remind the interns of the responsible use of social media, especially Twitter.

Sir Josh reminded the interns to be creative in 140 characters on Twitter. He also reminded the group to take advantage of the use of all the available social media platforms, which are Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Google+, and Tumblr, among others.

As a rule of thumb, he said to tweet only what the interns can tell a person to his face. "When in doubt, don't tweet," he suggested.

His greatest reminder is for the interns to tweet responsibly because they are Rappler interns.
