Editor's Notes
- Is it rude to intrude on conversations? (Frank Lloyd Wright mention in another state – we have Frank, too!) Still-developing etiquette. Examples of uses ** Butter cow discussions ** State Fair smackdowns with other State Fairs on Twitter and people rooting for their state’s Fair. ** TBEX Road Trip and Pam Mandel -- came through Iowa & they gave suggestions for stops in the state (couldn’t tweetup unfortunately.) Fun for Jessica AND TBEX-ers, 3 bloggers all talking to their audiences about Iowa.
- Had to get approval for FB page appearance Spent more time on Twitter on FB, although started on FB a bit sooner – revamp caused them to have to figure out how best to use it – now they’re seeing interaction and it’s picking up because it goes into people’s Home Page feeds. 600+ fans. Just her for tourism FB & Twitter – tries to check in morning, but when she’s gone, so nothing happens. Would be great to spend more, but budget cuts prevent that. Constant changes tough to keep with
- FB page in big box – over 1000 fans (Hutch is beating us!) Twitter – 1300+ Blogs on city Web site – Parks and Rec, Library. Unusual in that they started with blogs.
