Are you ready to take your BYOD expertise to the next level? It’s time to go beyond the online tech magazines and join the BYOD discussions on social networks. On the social networks, you will discover a more fluid BYOD conversation. This is the best place to learn about BYOD’s challenges, written in simple English.
After researching BYOD on social networks, I found that LinkedIn is by far the best place to go. There are dozens of BYOD discussion groups on LinkedIn and the maturity level is much higher than on other social networks. Here are the biggest and best BYOD discussion groups on LinkedIn:

Going past LinkedIn, Twitter has two BYOD hashtags worth watching – #byod (130,000 followers) and #bringyourowndevice (3,273 followers). Search for them on Twitter. Don’t forget to visit Nubo on Twitter!
