Vicky Beeching is known as a leading voice in social media, with over 23k Twitter followers and a verified account. Living in California during the early years of the Social Media Revolution, she was an early adopter of Twitter and WordPress. In a bold move, she asked her record company to take down her expensive artist website so she could replace it with her own WordPress blog. Initially this raised questions but it soon became clear that blogging and tweeting were the future. Beeching writes two award winning blogs, getting around 10k readers a day. She also works as a social media consultant.

Famous quotes containing the words social and/or media:
“Without metaphor the handling of general concepts such as culture and civilization becomes impossible, and that of disease and disorder is the obvious one for the case in point. Is not crisis itself a concept we owe to Hippocrates? In the social and cultural domain no metaphor is more apt than the pathological one.”
—Johan Huizinga (18721945)
“The media transforms the great silence of things into its opposite. Formerly constituting a secret, the real now talks constantly. News reports, information, statistics, and surveys are everywhere.”
—Michel de Certeau (19251986)
