Social Media Research Tip – Infographic Source Mining

Infographic source mining as a starting point
Hey all you would-be/will-be/Arby social media enthusiasts. Ever wonder where to go to find all of the great info you find about social media/digital marketing?

Here’s a quick-tip that I thought might be useful to share – you know all of those awesome infographics you see? Good infographic creators often save the very bottom of an infographic to list out their sources. Often times these sources are the digital spot for tech journals and other useful blogs.

These sources are also places where you can find these studies before you have to see it via infographic or some watered down tech blog version of the same study.

My advice? Set-up an RSS feed and populate it with the sources you find. Also, sources beget sources thanks to blog rolls and references in studies and of course those “further reading” sections. Good luck, compatriots! I’ll start you off with a cool infographic that I found on fastcompany.com
