This class sounds exactly like something Grady needs to round out our experience as students. I am kind of sad I will be graduating and unable to take this course, which is so relevant to the new PR strategies of today. I hope your lectures are podcasted so I can listen in. Best of luck with the class!

Colin - without a doubt I’ll talk about that. I’m a Navy Reserve PAO so how government public affairs uses social media is of interest to me. We’ve done some neat things SM-wise at my Navy command in the middle east (NAVCENT) - check them out at http://www.cusnc.navy.mil . Thanks for visiting my blog - I read yours all the time!

This sounds like an interesting course, Kaye. Are you going to touch on how governments could use social media to revitalize their existing connections to communities, interest groups and NGOs?

After all, governments at all levels are pretty much obsessed with developing relationships with various publics - but most of those relationships are still based on the government speaking to someone, and waiting for a reaction.
