MORE THAN YOU WANT TO KNOW @140 CHARACTERS OR LESS

snarky commentary by smf for 4LAKidsNews

Stephanie Abrams Lausd15 Sept 2012  ::  In what can generously be called a puff-piece  interview in The Huffington Post  – Stephanie Abrams, LAUSD Social Media Director, Highlights Back-To-School Success | http://huff.to/TWrrcA – posted Friday - the date of the  3rd or 5th (depending on whether you take your news from Fox or the Daily News …and a KPCC story said 3rd)  Annual LAUSD Student Recovery Day, Ms Abrams doesn’t mention Student Recovery Day, LAUSD’s media-driven attendance sweep – but instead discusses her own celebrity.

She does give us one piece of insight into being Social Media Director at LAUSD:

Q: Namecheck some of your favorite Twitter and Facebook accounts that you follow.


A: Personally, I enjoy following my friends updates about their children so I’ll just put some of the accounts I follow at work:


@LAMayorsOffice @WassermanFDN @GatesFoundation @EducationWeek @EducateOurState @TamaraBevens @LADNschools @LATimesOpinion @LAFund @LASchoolReport @HuffingtonPost @KLCStv

smf:

@LAMayorsOffice ?

@WassermanFDN ?

@GatesFoundation ?

Really?

I thought the idea of digital media/CGI is to hide the hidden strings.

as to @LAFund, @LASchoolReport , @KLCStv; @4LAKids presumes that Ms.Abrams (@Techymom) writes (or at a minimum, contributes to)  those …as she does @DrDeasyLAUSD.
