Maximizing your social networks for journalism

Belgian journalist Roland Legrand has some good tips on leveraging all those accounts you've probably set up on various social media platforms so you're not just wasting your time.  I recommend a clickthrough.

And that means they need to carefully think about what image they want to project of themselves, to a group of watchers that might include both personal friends and business colleagues.
