Social Networking on OPB

Listening to Think Out Loud on OPB. Tuesdays show is talking about local PDX government agencies using social networking to be more connected to population.

One thing that strikes me as a bit strange is the expectation/practice of responding to tweets/messages any time day or night. This really blurs the work/personal life boundary.

On the positive side, more active public engagement is always a good thing.
