IMARK Lesson 7: Hosted Services

Lesson 7 emphasises on hosted services. The tools need to be evaluated according to project and organizational requirements. Also the terms of service and license clauses of the tools are important. One can make use of the internet and other specific resources to locate the best appropriate tools to meet one’s needs. For instance, it is good to ensure the affordability, adaptability and ease of use of the tools.
The advantages and disadvantages of services hosted by others as well as those installed on the server need to be weighed.
The user can combine the use of different social media tools to create an online communication strategy that integrates the strengths of different tools according to the objectives of his/her project or organization.
