Social Studies: May 2016

Here are the top 5 social media happenings for the month of May.

  1. Reddit was named the second most trusted social site for news, behind LinkedIn.
  2. Instagram announced brand pages are coming.
  3. Retargeted ads are now available for Instagram.
  4. Instagram got a new logo. Feelings about it were…mixed.
  5. Snapchat had its own IRL Romeo and Juliet.

Bonus: Have you ever wanted to climb Mount Everest…without actually climbing Mount Everest? Two guys using Snapchat made it possible.

Our featured Instagram page this month is @a_southerndrawl. She took a visit to St. Helena at the end of the month and took some gorgeous photos along the way. You can read about her St. Helena adventures here and here.
