#48Daysof Blue

A message from our friends at the Aquarium:

Earth Day is over but the 48 Days of Blue has just begun!

In the 48 days between Earth Day and World Oceans Day, we’re urging the public to visit 48daysofblue.com, take a pledge to help lessen our impact on the Earth, and share their pledges/experiences on social using #48DaysofBlue!

Our goal is to leverage the massive amounts of communication around Earth Day to raise awareness/support for our blue planet, and we’d appreciate any help your organizations can give to get the word out! If you’re able to help us share this initiative, I’ve attached images optimized for Facebook and Instagram that you’re welcome to!

Social Media and the New Maryland.gov portal

We will be introducing a social content crowdsourcing tool with the new Maryland.gov portal. It will contain a combination of social media platforms aggregated in a single feed.   There are limited seats available so we will be selecting the best of the best when it comes to our agency and departmental accounts.  It is essential that each of our social media coordinators consistently create interesting sharable content so that this tool is effective for all.    You will learn more about this in the coming weeks but now is definitely the time to begin thinking about ways to make your accounts even more powerful!

MEA is expanding their social footprint and they want YOU to FOLLOW!
