Must-See Social Media Advice for Government

October 10, 2012 By Kristy Fifelski

I love hearing about government getting social online. My personal favorite is when I see agencies using humor to connect with citizens. Even if your agency isn't quite ready to engage in that way, check out a recent conversation I had with Nicole Sunstrum from Michigan.gov. The state's social media specialist is a busy woman, but she found time to share some advice for governments that are just getting started and may feel a bit overwhelmed with social media.

Send a tweet with hashtag #GovGirl and tell me about some of your favorite government social media moments!
