Cindy, Saw your Tweet about NASA, which is a government agency, making it even more astonishing that it has been so successful and out front in employing social media.
The Phoenix Mars Mission was the first NASA foray into Twitter, and Veronica McGregor at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory was truly visionary in her efforts with that medium. She had more than 35,000 followers during the height of the landed mission.
I attended NASA’s first gathering on social media (they called it Web 2.0 at that point) in late 2007 at Ames Research Lab and even then, the agency was way ahead of the crowd in its activities.

Sara,
Thanks for your comment. Wow – that’s fantastic. I think most people miss the fact that NASA was one of the true social media pioneers so this write up is a great way to provide some insight into what NASA is doing to connect with the masses. Thank you for sharing your insight with me and my readers.
