Editor's Notes
- How many board members in room? Staff? Paired up or on own? Large orgs? Small?
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eUeL3n7fDs
- equates to about 1.69 hours each and every day.
- Avg 6k tweets per second. As many as 4 times this amount of accounts exist and inactive, Twitter blocked Twopcharts from reporting this anymore.
- Take a minute to list out what platforms they are on. Are you on these too? Do you follow your org? Do you interact with posts?

- SM policy sets expectations and boundaries. Gives operations guidelines to those using in job, as well as personal use related. Policies are NOT static. You have policies for other modes of communication-why not social media?
- Metrics inside social media platforms External sites (e.g. Klout, Storify)
- Example of internal app metrics
- Why did this post work? Tags, shares. Also note the hide request
- Open discussion – if time, discuss with neighbor then group sharing
