Glenn,
You sound like an early adopter! It's great you are so active on social media and that you already realize how the use of such tools can enhance your service and your career center's service. Tell me - what is your Facebook strategy? You indicated that you share pictures and student projects. I'm curious and think it would benefit the forum for you to elaborate on why this is the type of content you strategically choose to share on the Facebook platform. What have been your goals with using your Facebook fan page and what have been the challenges? How are you measuring success?

I have also tapped into friends and colleagues that are utilizing social networking to help understand more how I can assimilate the social media into our overall plan.
We have a Facebook page for the school that we post daily pictures on along with student projects. I also use my own page to stay in touch with our graduates, also a way to track them down when phone calls and emails do not work. I just learned about Pipl.com and KGBpeople.com so I will try them also. I am also on Linkedin and suggest to our students that they should join to have a professional profile they can use.
I do have a Twitter account but must say that I don't utilize it.
