social media's social status

via

Sometimes, when we get caught up in the "seriousness" of our social media jobs, we need to laugh at ourselves by remembering social media's no different than the adolescent ridiculousness that is high school. Yep, you've got the popular kids, the big mouths, the losers, and so on.

This fun little graphic attempts to depict who's who.

I love that Google+ is the "hot new chick." Given the recent discussions of how people are barely using the site despite the mass sign ups, it seems to be a pretty accurate comparison. She's really sexy and appealing at first so you do whatever it takes to get a piece, but then once you hit that you're bored, annoyed and go back to your old girlfriend. Oh snap!
