Hey todaysdocument! I saw your challenge to create a gif from your online holdings. What do you think of my #HistoryGIf? I used this photo of a Texas picnic ground from Record Group 95: Records of the Forest Service, 1879-2008.
Camping and Pincnickinging-Texas
I took some liberties by adding the beaver. I hope you don't mind?
Two for Tumblr Tuesday: Tumblr for Feds: Gifs, Memes, and More
February has been a big month for the Federal Tumblr community. Â First we hosted Tumblr's own Liba Rubenstein at our Federal Tumblr Working Group meetup, then last week four of us presented at DigitalGov University's Tumblr webinar!Â
On February 19, a group of four federal Tumblrarians — Jessica Milcetich from USA.gov (usagov) , Darren Cole from the National Archives (todaysdocument) , Katie Gorscak from HHS (stopbullying) and Michelle Thomas from BLM (mypubliclands), joined DigitalGov University to showcase how they each use Tumblr in a different way to support their agencies’ missions, drive engagement and reach their target audiences.
Highlights from the webinar include:
Case studies on different ways to use Tumblr to meet your mission
Reaching the elusive teen and young adult audience
Ways to grow engagement
Using Tumblr as part of a larger social media strategy
