Campaigns

Campaigns are very very useful, and can be used for all sorts of things. Basically they are a way of grouping contacts together. 

Marketing User

If a user is a System Administrator (or any profile) and can see but not edit campaigns, then you need to check the Marketing User checkbox on their User profile.

Make sure you enable Feed Tracking on Campaigns
