According to AdWeek we spend 5 years of our lives on social media. In fact, we spend more time on social media than we do eating, grooming, socialising or doing the laundry!
Let that sink in.
5 years.
On social media.
Other things you could do with that time include walking the great wall of china 3.5 times, running over 10,000 marathons and climbing mount everest 32 times. If those suggestions alone are enough to make you reach for your digital device in exhaustion, then you may as well spend your 5 years wisely.
We’ve scoured the net (so you don’t have to), and found the most follow-worthy social media accounts for creative types. Enjoy!
