DoD Social Media Policy Looks Good
David Meerman Scott at The Huffington Post suggests that the U.S. Department of Defense new social media policy is superior to that of many companies.
Having reviewed the policy, I have to agree.
The policy applies to the DoD’s 3 million+ employees and welcomes and encourages employees and service members to use social media to stay in touch with friends and family whether they are at home or deployed.
Take a look at the DoD’s new Official Policy on Social Media and let me know what you think at mchumley@kmklaw.com.
