Why Join Twitter?
• Consolidate – information comes to me
  rather than making me search for it.
• Customize – I choose to receive only
  information that’s important to me.
• Time Sensitize – show me the most recent
  data “on top”.
• Reference – additional information is
  available via simple “clicks” on a URL link.

NASA use of Social Media
• NASA has signed Terms of Service (TOS) agreements with this
  social media providers: Flicker, USStream, Facebook, YouTube and
  Twitter. That means we are legally covered to use these tools as
  official agency communications. To register a channel, go to
  http://apps.gov and follow the procedures.

• If you’re going to use these tools as official agency communications,
  you must use the apps.gov process to be covered by the agency
  TOS. The reason you can’t simply agree to the standard TOS these
  companies provide — though we all have in the past -- is that most
  of them have clauses that commit the federal government to things
  none of us can legally commit it to, e.g., being subject to state courts
  or indemnifying the company. Using the NASA TOS will also get ads
  removed from the channels we use.

• NASA Point of Contact is Brian Dunbar (HQ). He is the NASA
  representative to Federal Web Manager’s Council.

  • 56. NASA use of Social Media • NASA has signed Terms of Service (TOS) agreements with this social media providers: Flicker, USStream, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter. That means we are legally covered to use these tools as official agency communications. To register a channel, go to http://apps.gov and follow the procedures. • If you’re going to use these tools as official agency communications, you must use the apps.gov process to be covered by the agency TOS. The reason you can’t simply agree to the standard TOS these companies provide — though we all have in the past -- is that most of them have clauses that commit the federal government to things none of us can legally commit it to, e.g., being subject to state courts or indemnifying the company. Using the NASA TOS will also get ads removed from the channels we use. • NASA Point of Contact is Brian Dunbar (HQ). He is the NASA representative to Federal Web Manager’s Council.
