• Access to a GLOBAL audience enabling many voices• F R E E!!! (in most cases)• Your ideas and messages can be shared & spread very quickly • Can take on a creative life of its own• Very high profile – the latest ‘buzz’• Portrays the human voice of your organization • You want share ideas in progress and let others join in and help• It may be messy – so be prepared to deal with this • You are already clear in your aims, but open to contributions
![Page 41: Devon total support r cs social media presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060110/5559e3c9d8b42a39498b4cf0/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• Tracking sites can be time consuming – so have a clear plan• Needs fast internet connection (ADSL / Fibre) – rural issues• Can be intimidating if not used to using the internet / technology• Fickle – constantly changing ‘current fashionable product’• Impossible to control – groups may take your message and
spin it, so it is important to listen to the social networks
• Be prepared for your organisation to change how it works
• Looser control on organisation message and authorization - won’t work if your message is written in stone, not electricity
• Invest time in staff learning new skills and the time to make it an organizational habit

From Boulders to Pebbles
• “All the new media and cultural organisations, created from now on, will be ‘pebble’ businesses.
• Google and other more intelligent search engines offer to help us find just the pebble we are looking for. Google will increasingly offer to organize more and more of the unruly beach.
• Wikipedia is a vast collection of factual pebbles. • YouTube is a collection of video pebbles • Flickr of photographic pebbles• Social networking sites such as Facebook allow us to connect
with pebbles who are friends.• Twitter … allows people to create collections of lots of really
tiny little pebbles.”• Charles Leadbetter
