Hi Michael

Finally I have come across someone writing about social media and the military. I as well am in the military, the California national guard i'm looking to go active once i get my commission.

Im the communications manager for a social media company based in Palo Alto, California, eCairn. We manily specailize in community and influencer marketing. We also make lists of top bloggers in a specifoc market.

My question is to you how can we market this to military or government agencies?

Thanks you for you for your service

Nice post, got me thinking. I work in U.S. Army public affairs and I am really diving into social media to communicate with people. I think though that the military has jumped in too fast because for the most part all they are doing with the social media sites is just posting their traditional news releases and strategic messages. They are still just using one-way communication instead of developing relationships with real people. I commend the effort the Army and the military is making by leveraging social media, but I can only hope that they don't use it to just push public affairs products. That would be a 'no go' at this station.

The “Army blog” is not the official United States Army blog. Read the disclaimer at the bottom of the website: “This website is not affiliated, endorsed, authorized, or associated in any way with any government, military or country.”

It is interesting to see the different direction social media is being used for…….and military is one way to realize social media is effective with younger consumers, so we need to be paying more attention to it.
