Think about (and research) the following questions: 

• "Something I don't Know" - Research an emerging social media channel not discussed in the textbook (e.g. TikTok, HouseParty, Vero, ... etc.)
  • What are its key characteristics (e.g. number of users, user demographics)?
  • What new trends/features are available (i.e. how does it work)?
  • What kind of visuals does the site use compared to others?
  • What's a typical post look like?
  • What are some examples of brands using this channel?
  • What is the significance/impact of this platform on social media marketing strategy?
• What happens when a social media platform expands its audience (e.g. Houseparty from the article above)?
• ???? Fill in the Blank: Would _________________ brand (the more random the better) use platform ______________? Why or why not?
