Thanksgiving: a time for mashed potatoes, avoiding politics at the dinner table, post-dinner naps, and, of course, giving thanks.
While we have plenty to be thankful for this year here at Metter Media — our amazing clientele, our stellar team of kickass women, and a Pinterest-worthy office right in the heart of Central Square — our team is taking some time to be thankful for the brilliant updates and features that we’ve seen on social media this year.
Here are some of our favorites:

With the end of summer quickly coming up, we’ve got another #MMSocialReport for you! Instagram launches live group chat, Youtube has a new chat feature, and of course Facebook is working on some big things. All this and more in this week’s report:
Vine, the once popular video-sharing platform, has been out of the online discussion for a while (and we miss it!). After Twitter discontinued Vine, many popular Viners had to switch to other social media platforms. We got in touch with Bostonian comedian, now relocated to Los Angeles, and former Viner Ry Doon to get his thoughts on current social media trends.
Ry jumpstarted his career on Vine and attracted huge following with his funny skits and impressions. After Vine was shut down, Ry had to switch to other platforms and relocate himself on social media. Once being one of the most recognized Viners, with nearly 4 million followers, Ry is now focusing on his career as a comedian and growing his presence on social media.
