Editor's Notes

  1. Here is the NDSU Extension Twitter stream. In just 6 days, our organization was able to reach more than 27,004 Twitter accounts. We only have 1,385 followers, but we were able to reach almost 20 times that many people by engaging with our network. Some of those 1,385 followers shared our information with their followers, then those tweets were re-shared again reaching another group of followers.
  2. Here is my Twitter stream. I have asked my Twitter followers, my Tweeps, to share one piece of social media advice with you or just say hi. We are bringing all those messages together by each of us using the hashtag #ndgga. The reason my Tweeps answer when I call is that they find value in their connection with me.
  3. The NDSU Extension YouTube channel has 250 subscribers but the videos on that channel have received 364,786 views. Those views have grown well beyond the subscriber base because the videos are available through search and because people are sharing them with their network.
  4. Here is my Twitter stream. I have asked my Twitter followers, my Tweeps, to share one piece of social media advice with you or just say hi. We are bringing all those messages together by each of us using the hashtag #ndgga. The reason my Tweeps answer when I call is that they find value in their connection with me.
  5. Ward County’s Facebook page has likes but in the last 60 days they have reached almost 79 time that many Facebook users because they are engaging in online networks.
