Interview Allison Carter & Social Networking
Rubbermaid recently conducted interviews with organizers around the country.
Today the interview with Organizer U. founder Allison Carter is posted on the Rubbermaid Blog.
The interview came about because of my participation in social networking. I became interested in social networking after hearing how it was working for some of my friends who are organizers in other cities. They found they were making important connections and forming relationships by:
1. Blogging about the things and people in their community (area of interest)
2. Commenting on other blogs in their community
3. Sending tweets (or mini posts) on twitter.com
4. Responding/commenting on tweets from others
5. Bookmarking interesting articles on social bookmarking sites such as digg, delicious, stumble upon, and more.
Public Relations just ain’t what it used to be. Traditional media are there. But they are evolving into news sources that integrate social networking. Most TV news and newspapers now have blogs and many can be found on twitter looking for interesting news sources.
I encourage everyone to get out and give it a try, or get left behind in the new media age.
