Denise205: I always like to look at a profile of someone I haven't engaged with before, to try to get a sense of where he's coming from. MegBiallas: T2: I examine the TONE of posts from the community. Are they cheerleaders? Interrogators? etc. rev_david: The 4 yo says: "'Coconut!"

MeredithGould: @iamepiscopalian So, you keep a mirror at your desk or you just feel the un-love? theologybird: MT @MeredithGould: RT During a f2f, we receive visual cues. Are there other ways to read cue and cues to read? mbstockdale: @MeredithGould lol Denise205: @mbstockdale Agreed! Post history can help. rampracer: T2. Experience, ongoing engagement and a willingness to give the benefit of the doubt to serve people. mbstockdale: Can also ask for clarification if in doubt. Denise205: We have to remember that we can always ask for clarification, in the spirit of generosity and giving benefit of the doubt. mbstockdale: @Denise205 thinking alike, eh? drothamel: @mbstockdale on that note, asking a question is often the most appropriate response. MeredithGould: T2 Speaking sociologically...social media tools seem to be generate their own culture & language provides cues. 1/2 Denise205: @mbstockdale Seems that way! Denise205: RT @drothamel: @mbstockdale on that note, asking a question is often the most appropriate response. MeredithGould: T2 e.g., the language appropriate on LinkedIn is more formal; Twitter more informal. 2/2 drothamel: @Denise205 I use that tactic A LOT as a basketball referee. MegBiallas: RT @MeredithGould T2 Speaking sociologically...social media tools seem to be generate their own culture & language provides cues. MeredithGould: RT @Denise205: We have to remember we can always ask for clarification, in the spirit of generosity & giving benefit of the doubt. mbstockdale: @drothamel yes! asking question generates clarity and more conversation. It's what we might do in offline convo drothamel: @MeredithGould That makes me think of things like emoticons. :-) MeredithGould: @Anj121 I'm interested in & have been (sort of) tracking how quickly social media convo convert to phone convos rev_david: Yes - know your audience. All communities have a short-hand language. (1/2)

drothamel: Also, remember that one of the best social media tools ever created is the telephone. Denise205: @drothamel Would make for a good referee! MeredithGould: RT @RevWeb: T2: language on blogs and facebook can be very different frm twitter. Medium can dictate different replies. rev_david: (2/2) What I say among Lutheran clergy would not work among other friends who are non-denom / evengelical rev_david: RT @RevWeb: T2: language on blogs and facebook can be very different frm twitter. Medium can dictate different replies. penelopepiscopl: @drothamel True about the phone, but you have to text before you call. So my teens insist. rampracer: RT @RevWeb: T2:language on blogs and facebook can be very different frm twitter. Medium can dictate different replies. gospelpimp: @drothamel not coffee? skenow: T2: the "praise publicly, correct in private" rule comes to mind drothamel: @penelopepiscopl Heheh.

Denise205: RT @skenow: T2: the "praise publicly, correct in private" rule comes to mind AmyL_Bishop: Tone & language vary greatly by the channel. RT @RevWeb T2 language on blogs & FB can be very different from Twitter. drothamel: @mbstockdale @penelopepiscopl texting has its limitations, just like twitter. rev_david: Two elements when entering a SocMed conversation: (1) audience/community, and (2) medium. Both need considered.

MeredithGould: RT @rev_david: Two elements when entering a SocMed conversation: (1) audience/community, and (2) medium. Both need considered. mbstockdale: @drothamel we do what it takes to communicate to the kiddos penelopepiscopl: @mbstockdale Yes, mine (21 & 16) won't answer the phone. Only respond to texts. MeredithGould: @penelopepiscopl I'm on the verge of that practice myself & I used to LOVE phone. theologybird: RT @rev_david: Two elements when entering a SocMed conversation: (1) audience/community, and (2) medium. Both need considered. drothamel: @mbstockdale I understand. I usually prefer texts, too; but it just won't work for deep conversation. chsocm: Thinking at a broader/higher level... chsocm: T3 At what point does it make sense to develop social media guidelines for your church/organization? theologybird: My college ministry colleagues say email is passe. It's all about texting and tweeting now. Welcome? to the future drothamel: @skenow That is one of my very favorite rules. penelopepiscopl:@drothamel MMMMMM! Chocolate machine sounds wonderful. MegBiallas: T3 The time is now! gospelpimp: T3 From the very beginning before it takes on a life of it's own. Habits are hard to correct. MeredithGould: @MegBiallas LOL MeredithGould: RT @gospelpimp: T3 From the very beginning before it takes on a life of it's own. Habits are hard to correct. mbstockdale: If you trust your employees, the SM guidelines should not be an issue. rev_david: Yup. Email is going away. // RT @theologybird: My college ministry colleagues say email is passe. rev_david: Missed topic 3. RT? RevWeb: T3 Begin with SM guidelines. Modify as needed. Keep in mind golden rule always. MegBiallas: In seriousness: It's time for guidelines people are already talking about you, and you haven't added your voice to the convo.

12

chsocm: @mbstockdale But note that churches & ministries often rely heavily on volunteers. drothamel: T3: Definitely if you have multiple people managing SM channels, and certainly if you plan on having future users. Denise205: @rev_david @theologybird But e-mail remains a top converter for traffic to websites, and a business tool. So don't count it out yet. paulsteinbrueck: RT @mbstockdale: If you trust your employees, the SM guidelines should not be an issue. // I agree. I hate SM policies! gospelpimp: T3 Be specific & don't leave the gray areas up for interpretations. Do ur part to ensure that ur staff do not harm in ur name. mbstockdale: I've worked with volunteers on the fb page. Didn't have written guidelines. more proactive on behavior discussions drothamel: @paulsteinbrueck @mbstockdale it depends on the nature of the policies. Denise205: I think we're using 2 or 3 definitions of guidelines here. klamach: @mbstockdale @chsocm but what about your members who potentially try to represent you? had a real experience with this recently rev_david: T3 I am wary of SocMed policies - I am more interested in principles that guide our use. bschebs: RT @mbstockdale: @chsocm If you trust your employees, the SM guidelines should not be an issue. mirgray: You need guidelines the week before you start. @AmyL_Bishop Denise205: There are policies for the staff/volunteers that are in-house, and there are others to publish for community. chsocm: @Denise205 Good point! Policies about who may tweet for an organization; appropriate content; who monitors. gospelpimp: @rev_david I agree with changing focus from policies to principles, but be selective in staff theologybird: @drothamel @Denise205 @rev_david I agree, but don't expect the under 30 crowd to jump on board. iamepiscopalian: RT @rev_david: T3 I am wary of SocMed policies - I am more interested in principles that guide our use. // Good comment! MeredithGould: RT @rev_david: T3 I am wary of SocMed policies - I am more interested in principles that guide our use. drothamel: @theologybird True.

13

AmyL_Bishop: I guess we're talking about 2 kind of policies. Just for #SM users affiliated with the church and then for admins of church pages. penelopepiscopl: RT @rev_david: T3 I am wary of SocMed policies - I am more interested in principles that guide our use.//Agreed. paulsteinbrueck: @Denise205 I've never felt the need to create SM policies for my staff. MeredithGould: The words of our faith: It's easier to get forgiveness than permission. reckshow: @MeredithGould: and remember disclosure abt who is posting/tweeting & whether they are the official voice of the org. rev_david: @gospelpimp Ah -- I hear you now klamach: RT @drothamel: @gospelpimp @rev_david true dat. Not everyone has the temper for representing an church/org on social media. jeanalawrence: Set the tone by modeling the behavior you expect and engage frequently. MeredithGould: MT @skenow: T3 If you trust your staff to lead a ministry, why wouldn't you trust them with social media? MeredithGould: RT @jeanalawrence: Set the tone by modeling the behavior you expect and engage frequently. mbstockdale: @jeanalawrence good to see you here! penelopepiscopl: RT @gospelpimp: T3 Remember that one poorly place comment and you can spend an entire day explaining it.//That can happen anywhere! drothamel: @skenow those are sometimes different skill sets. One can "lead" a ministry in a managerial role. One must be exposed on SM. chsocm: @anitrak This is an hour-long weekly chat...and we're coming up on the hour. klamach: @skenow @chsocm I would trust them if they made it known, as they would a ministry, I am sure they would be discussion Denise205: RT @Anj121: T3 SM policies can protect volunteers & staff not just restrict. It's not about trust. AmyL_Bishop: #Truth RT @Denise205: I dont think its as much about trust, @skenow, as it is about helpful guidelines for consistent messaging. jeanalawrence: A leader in ministry does not equal a great communicator in the digital space. Equip them to engage. betweenthelakes: RT @MeredithGould: MT @skenow: T3 If you trust your staff to lead a ministry, why wouldn't you trust them with social media?

Equip them to engage. drothamel: You wouldn't choose everyone on your staff preach on Sunday, exercise the same discretion when choosing who will do SM. AmyL_Bishop:@reckshow @skenow Absolutely! Without a clear concise message #SM users won't get a clear message of what you believe/who you are. chsocm: @rev_david We're not there, yet. Just getting there! drothamel: RT @jeanalawrence: A leader in ministry does not equal a great communicator in the digital space. Equip them to engage. reckshow: @jeanalawrence and seek those who have a gift for socm modality to compliment leaders. mbstockdale: discretion, training, guidelines, trust MeredithGould: Communicating effectively via social media involves a skill set that not everyone has or is able to learn. AmyL_Bishop: RT @drothamel U wouldn't choose everyone on your staff preach on Sunday, exercise the same discretion when choosing who will do SM. penelopepiscopl: T3 Not sure consistency is key tho-diff voices, diff media are better than corporate sameness, IMHO. IRL church has many voices! jeanalawrence: @reckshow exactly, find the people that have a knack for communicating your message well rev_david: RT @drothamel: U wouldnt choose everyone on your staff preach on Sunday, exercise the same discretion when choosing who will do SM. rampracer: RT @MeredithGould: Communicating effectively via social media involves a skill set that not everyone has or is able to learn.

RT @mbstockdale: @chsocm discretion, training, guidelines, trust paulsteinbrueck: @chsocm If u feel the need 4 a SM policy, do u also need an evangelism policy 4 who shares the gospel when in what way??? mbstockdale: thinking a social media guidelines was for all

One you control, the other you don't chsocm: Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work or watch or weep this night & give your angels charge over those who sleep. klamach: @chsocm Thank you Meredith for another hour of great discussion, interacting and learning. penelopepiscopl: Don't agree w/"protection." SM is ministry of all kinds, w/all sorts of people doing it in their own personal way. IRL church does. kmullett: Because you can't set policy for what other people say. #orm rev_david: RT @chsocm: Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work or watch or weep this night & give your angels charge over those who sleep. drothamel: RT @chsocm: Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work or watch or weep this night & give your angels charge over those who sleep. klamach: RT @chsocm: Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work or watch or weep this night & give your angels charge over those who sleep.
