Revision as of 17:13, 4 April 2015
In this modern age, it's not simply appropriate, but necessary that The Augustan Society, Inc., engage the public, our members, and various workgroups with social media of a type appropriate to the purpose.
Contents
This under the direction of the Facebook Moderator, is a public site used primarily to attract attention to the Society (and to block others from using our name there).
There is an Augustan Society LinkedIn page, but it is not presently under the control of the Society. Work is in progress to claim the page.
AugustanBoard YahooGroup
This under the direction of the Assistant Secretary, is a private forum intended for use by members of the Board and Consuls to discuss Society business, and perhaps conduct some preliminary conversations about items to come before the Board. It is presently inactive for lack of participation.
AugustanConvert YahooGroup
This under the direction of the Editor-in-Chief and the Photo Identification Study Group leader. It's a private forum for use by volunteers working on the digitization of back issues (by conforming RTF files from the OCR software to the PDF files). It is also used by the Photo ID Study Group to post photographs from the Society's collection in hopes members will visit and help identify the persons shown.
AugustanHeraldry YahooGroup
This under the direction of the Arms Chancellor, it's a private group for the members of the Arms Registration Committee and Consuls to exchange files and maintain a database of petitions and registrations. It is presently inactive.
ENS Forum
The Main Website, operating under EasyNetSites, includes a public forum feature. It was presently disabled at the order of the President as it did not have the ability to require a moderator's preview of posts. It could be reactivated by order of the President or Board if a moderator should come forth.
A Twitter account has been proposed for the Society, but it has not yet been implemented for lack of a moderator and a source of frequent data to post. It is not expected that this will be activated until and unless the Facebook page gets a moderator and decent support, at which point diverting some of that data flow to Twitter will become trivial.
