Viral Marketing by another Name

Submitted On 2009-09-26 by Chris Erickson

So I've been spending a lot of time under government care lately. No, no I haven't been in prison. I've been deployed, silly.

But seriously. My current role and responsibilities as a Public Affairs Specialist have my hands full and my schedule busy. One of those duties is that of Social Media Strategist. I gave myself that title. Awesome.

In this role I'll be pumping information out to the world via Web sites like Twitter, Facebook, Flikr and Youtube. The information will revolve around Kosovo Forces 12 deployment and the work done over the next year.

So pardon me as I plug my product for a moment. It won't happen here a lot, but it will happen some. I prefer to keep the Uncouth and paid, public-sector work separate to alleviate any possible concern about conflicts of interest. As of now, I've been drinking MGD and some local Cabernet, so all bets are off.

Once the MGD runs out, I won't plug KFOR 12 much here over the coming months, except to provide a satirical relief for myself from the daily ins-and-outs of what is sure to be a fairly uneventful deployment.
