Reading List

Add this one to your reading list: Making News in the Digital Era by David E. Henderson. Especially good for those just venturing into the new/social media environment. One of the best chapters I've read on strategic communication. One minor editing suggestion: Remove the "s" from communication.

Working it ...

Wow, July 4 the last post. Where the heck have I been...

Remembering those with whom I've stood, thru time and space in history and love; that brought and keeps us here. Happy 233rd Birthday my Home.

Heard today: dealing with the uneducated in unfamiliar territory. I like it! #gov20 #IDGA

Think

In SN and the social media it is more than "content." You must have a plan, a strategy, for your contributions to the community. Answer the questions: who are you? why are you here? what are you contributing?

Just thinking.

Leaks from within the government to reporters and other outside sources are nothing new. In this new global information environment, however, and the proliferation of computer technology, imaging, and distribution it really points out how much more important it is to have well established channels of communication processes and procedures for the release of information. The ability to electronically forge documents like these are now available to anyone so the channel is the determining factor concerning authenticity. But hasn't it always come down to the "trusted channel?"

I'm just thinkin' ...

Organizing

I haven't been here in a while not because I didn't want to but because I haven't had the time. Now I'm working on organizing my time and hopefully this place will help in organizing my thoughts about organizing my time.
