A nice little idea from Birmingham School of Media’s technician team: they’ve started tweeting updates about their work and news about support services around the University. The account is fairly new so hasn’t had much traffic but here’s what’s good about it:
1. A lot of our students use Twitter, or will be using it soon (I’m looking at you, Freshers) so this account should have a good reach within its constituency
2. The Tech’s have press ganged an old 2nd Gen iMac (which is so so pretty) into a twitter fall in their reception. Students spend a lot of time in that reception as they need to check out kit. So the screen gets plenty of eyeballs. So it works for those not on Twitter too.
This wouldn’t work for everyone but it seems right for us. It’s a nice little touch that should help them keep students up to date.
