power to the online people [INFOGRAPHIC]

I remember the day the earthquake hit in Haiti. I was in my office with a TV on one of the news networks. I looked over at my Twitter app when I noticed a stream of tweets about a the quake, and many even had pictures. Several minutes later the news networks started reporting on it, and those same images found their way onto TV. It’s interesting how social media scooped the major news networks.

I recently came across this infographic that expresses some very real and key ideas about the power of social media. My question for you is this… How are you leveraging the power of social media to get your story out?
