Updated Cliches For The Social Media World

By Christopher De Voss @chrisdevoss

Social Media!

You know…Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, FarmersOnly.com, etc.

We understand that most of these sayings were written around the same time that the Bible hit the Gutenberg printing press, but we feel it is time for some updated sayings to reflect today’s modern and fast paced Internet world.
