My organization does very little to exert mass collaboration
for social media. We currently only have one person who is responsible for
keeping the Facebook and Twitter pages updated. We do have a few however who
are responsible for keeping the wiki page for the video game up to date. So as
far as the 6 principles are concerned, mass collaboration is almost non-existent.
When we decided to make a Facebook and Twitter page, the team leader decided he
wanted to keep the page as professional as possible and as a volunteer project,
wanted to make sure that the wrong message wasn’t be brought across and I believe
that is what led the downfall of mass collaboration in my organization.
I, personally, believe that not ever industry has the best set of qualities for easy mass collaboration. I feel that sometimes just getting information out to the intended audience is enough, and different member interaction is not totally necessary. However, there are also other industries where mass collaboration is a make it or break it utility.
ReplyDeleteI would like to know more about what your organization does. It definitely is important to take a vested interest in this rather than making it a volunteer opportunity for someone. The question is whether or not the use of social media is a result of failing mass collaboration.
ReplyDelete@Jenn I agree, but I do wish there was more collaboration within my organization.
