June 1 Florida Bar News feature article: Bar steps up its social media outreach An excerpt: Today, The Florida Bar’s steady stream of information for its 98,000-plus members is now prevalent across six social media platforms: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, YouTube and Pinterest. “It certainly would not be forward thinking to just utilize Facebook, but all of the platforms going forward. We’ve gone all the way from Facebook to Pinterest, which is a tremendous, tremendous jump,” said Michelle Suskauer, chair of Communications Committee. “Given the popularity of social media . . . this is how we all communicate. It didn’t make sense for The Florida Bar to not start utilizing social media and all of its platforms. That’s why we’ve progressed to the point where we’ve expanded our social media to all the platforms, so we’re pushing out information to individuals, and they can receive it in whatever way they feel most comfortable. I think it’s incredibly exciting what we’ve done.” PHOTOS: Left -- Michelle Suskauer, chair of Florida Bar Board of Governors Communications Committee; Right -- John Stewart, chair-elect of the Communications Committee and chair of the subcommittee for Social Media and Communications Technology.
