Social Media Survey Says… We’re Number 13!
A new report shows Chicago as the 13th most social media-active city in the U.S. According to the Social Business Report, conducted by sales and marketing database firm NetProspex, 12 other cities are more connected via social media than the Windy City. Top cities included New York (of course) San Francisco and Austin, TX.
Chicago has a pretty active social media community, so personally I’m a bit surprised we didn’t hit the top 10, but maybe that’s just Midwestern pride talking.
Any other thoughts on the study? You can read the entire report at http://www.netprospex.com/social.—KEIDRA D. CHANEY
