Green Media launches Facebook page, Twitter feed
I
n our never-ending quest to bring you the latest happenings in the Green Industry as quickly as possible, we at Green Media — publisher of Outdoor Power Equipment (OPE), Landscape and Irrigation, Arbor Age and SportsTurf magazines — recently launched a Facebook page and a Twitter feed. To access our Facebook page, simply go to your per- sonal Facebook page and search for "GreenMediaMags" — or go directly to www.facebook.com/GreenMediaMags. And while you're visiting our Facebook page, be sure to "Like" us. You can also follow our Facebook feed on www.greenmediaonline.com and www.outdoorpowerequip ment.com, as well as on our new Twitter feed at www.twitter.com/GreenMediaMags (or search for @GreenMediaMags). On our Facebook fan page, the staff of all four maga-
zines will regularly update the page, so you can keep informed of the latest Green In- dustry news and trends. Topics covered will be all aspects of the Green Industry, including outdoor power equipment, landscape design/build and lawn maintenance, irrigation, tree care, sports turf management and more. The Facebook fan page is also a great way for you to provide us with valuable feed-
back, share your thoughts and ideas, and interact with our staff and other Green Indus- try professionals. This page will be closely monitored and your comments will provide us with unique insight. Please tell us what you've enjoyed reading in our magazines, e-newsletters and websites, as well as what topics that you would like us to address. Also, feel free to ask questions of our staff and your colleagues regarding the Green Industry.
I'm a newbie with Facebook and Twitter, so please bear with me as I learn the
ropes of both forms of social media. Thus far, however, I've enjoyed experimenting with Facebook and Twitter, and I'm amazed at the buzz both have generated in such a short amount of time. Within the first two weeks of officially launching our Facebook page and Twitter feed, we were already up to nearly 100 Facebook fans and 50 Twitter followers! We hope that you will join our Facebook and Twitter communities and become a frequent contributor to both. We would love to hear from you.
