Social media highlights of the week

Social media

We all spend much of our time buried in our phones, keeping up with what social media has to offer. But the good stuff can get lost in the mix. So we wanted to share with you some of the better posts we’ve seen this week. Some went viral, others had less attention, but all are worthy of a second look.

While we’re at it, make sure you’re following us on Twitter, Facebook and, now, Pinterest so you don’t miss our new output.
