[GoodReads Summary](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16059137-oh-myyy):
|
|
|
|
How did a 75-year old actor from Star Trek become a social media juggernaut?
|
|
|
|
Why does everything he posts spread like wildfire across the ether, with tens
|
|
|
|
or even hundreds of thousands of likes and shares? And what can other sites,
|
|
|
|
celebrities and companies do to attain his stratospheric engagement levels,
|
|
|
|
which hover or top 100 percent while theirs languish in the single digits?

Ok, totally my fault, but I bought the book expecting a bit about Takei
|
|
|
|
history, but all I got was "how to be successful on Facebook".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad book. It's easy to read and have its fun
|
|
|
|
moments, but there is nothing about Takei himself -- again, my fault, I was
|
|
|
|
expecting a biography when I didn't read the summary.
