Happiness Is Contagious In Social Networking

Today I found an article from the LA Times that helps approve my Blog Title: "Marketing Makes Me Smile."

Some smart folks at Harvard have studied over 5,000 relationships and how their level of happiness on social media sites affected the rest of their networks. Apparently, happiness is contagious as they found that knowing someone who is happy makes you 15.3% more likely to be happy yourself!

Interesting article. Click on the link below for all the happy details, and keep smiling out there. :)
