Next week will be Social Media Week at Pajama Market

Pajama Market will feature posts on Social Media all next week. 38% of our readers chose Social Media over Photos, RSS, Artists, and Authors for the theme.

We will take a look at how to use Social Media to expand our readership using tools like del.icio.us, digg, flickr, squidoo, coComments and other popular social media sites.

What is Social Media? Wikipedia defines it as:

"The online tools and platforms that people use to share opinions, insights, experiences, and perspectives with each other."

There is a whole new industry growing from these tools similar to SEO (Search Engine Optimization) called SMO (Social Media Optimization). Companies are specializing in getting your blog to get dugg, or appear on the front page of del.icio.us which guarantees thousands of near-instant visitors (the term getting dugg often refers to your servers shutting down because they can't handle the traffic).

Join us next week to learn all about this phenomenon.
