I previously only used our social media accounts to post my Pic Of The Moment, which I have not been inspired to create for some time, I’m afraid. So without that, I’m not sure how best to use it.

I mentioned recently that if any DUers were social media pros and had any great ideas, or even wanted to volunteer to manage DU’s social media accounts, I’d be interested to hear proposals. I think there were some good suggestions in that thread that I need to go back and look at, but we can always continue the conversation here…

Earl is not a social media type of guy.

It would be nice if there could be a committee of a dozen active, respected and committed members of the DU community who could work on running it. If even just to post the topic generating the best conversations or most clever post of the day.

the account during the great migration and don't use it or anything else.
And have never posted, but the few times I've looked have been puzzled to get email notifications that I have Followers. What are they following?
