A series of links to things you need to check. Facebook changes the algorithm again, and it's bad news for institutions.
Personal vent here: if I want to get info from companies, teams or colleges - damn it Facebook, stop jacking around with that. We all have something we are passionate about, and I don't want you continuing to make it harder for me to see that.

Instagram continues to rise, and in this survey, Twitter is now down around
Google+ (a finding that seems a bit off). You will want to drill down into this one through all the pages.
