Michael Wiese Module 5-2
The social media network that I will be evaluating is called TOUT. TOUT is a microblogging service that enables its users to send and view 15 second videos which they call touts. It gained popularity in 2011 when Shaquille O'Neal used it announce his retirement. There have been over 12 million visitors since its launch and over 75 million videos have been created and shared. It is a free to use network. I find that it is very easy to use too. It is just like vine just that you can have longer videos. I do not think that my NPO (Arc of Buffalo County) would find much benefit from TOUT because the videos are not long enough to get information out.

Vine is a very popular social media outlet so it would make sense that a similar website with longer videos could also gain popularity. With someone as well-known as Shaquille O'Neal endorsing the site then its name is sure to get out to the public. It's also nice that the site is free to use. Everyone loves free things so it would definitely help the site get more users.
ReplyDeleteI think that this could be a big hit because everyone likes the visual aspect. Sometimes its nice to be able to see what people are talking about rather than just read it through a post.
