Some of you may have noticed the HAODS Twitter feed on the front page
and the news page of the website (bottom right). This is taken from our 'presence' on Twitter which is run by Carlos Miguel. He regularly posts little snippets of information about what's on regarding HAODS. Twitter is a good method of posting brief headline information; each tweet can only
be 140 characters in length so it is particularly useful for newsflashes.
We already receive the benefit of having the Twitter feed as this feed, in combination with other sources, always means that something new is being posted on the front page of our site. This is good for our Google ranking which in turn means that more people see HAODS.
Carlos asks if more people could please have a look at the live twitter feed and requests that you become 'followers'. Simply put, a follower is someone interested in what HAODS has to say. A twitter feed is live and appears to the second so it is a good place to receive the most up to date gen. To become a follower simply log onto Twitter and visit this page: http://twitter.com/HAODS. Then click on the 'follow' button. You can even think of your own HAODS tweets and pass them on. The more tweets we can post, the better this tool will be.
Like any society, HAODS needs to attract new members and to encourage new audiences. Carlos and Dean work tirelessly to find new ways to promote the society, but they need the help and support of other society members. If you are interested in becoming a website or twitter contributor, or if you have any ideas for electronic communications or publicising the society, then please contact Julie Huntington and find out how you could become involved. She would be delighted to hear from you!
