I run our Twitter and Facebook pages, because I feel it's important to maintain a personal relationship with fans.

I don't do my own Instagram.

For blogs today, it's really about content creation and partnering with a brand. You can get the news in so many forms and so many places. A tweet now is enough to tell you about a story. People don't have to click to go to your site.
