Hi Friend,

Unfortunately, misinformation spreads way too easily on social media. Some people are quick to re-share news updates without reviewing the details of the source content. Thankfully, Twitter is committed to keeping their platform a safe place for information sharing and healthy conversations. They even developed the community-based Birdwatch program to help prevent the spread of misinformation. If you're interested in joining Twitter's Birdwatch program, check out my latest article below.

Now here's this week's roundup of super useful tips, advice, and resources to help you #GetSocialSmarter.
