According to reports, the MCPON's Facebook page has more than 10,000 fans and receives more than 2,000 visits a day to read about his travels and meetings with Sailors across the Fleet.The MCPON likes the use of social media because of the 2-way communication that social media brings to the table.
It makes sense that we would see this day though. Facebook now has more than 350 Million users, and more and more our Sailors are congregating in the cyber realm talking about the issues they face today. In order to stay connected and keep people informed you have to adjust to the information age.
Like it or not, these are the days where we will see Career Development Boards taking place on Facebook. Live, breaking news will be seen on Twitter before we hear about it on CNN or read it in the Washington Post. Hell, we even have a Cyber Command that is responsible for space.
Welcome to the future, Shipmates!
