The Best New Web Initiative by RPI in a Long Time


Reading Time: < 1 minute

Friday RPI Alumni Relations launched a page on its website devoted to the RPI Alumni Social Action Stream.  This page pulls together the RPI Alumni action stream from eight social media sites (Twitter, Pinterest, Facebook, Instagram, Google+, Reddit, Tumblr, and Flickr).

The Social Action Stream is really well done and has tons of potential.  If Alumni Relations gets aggressive with favoriting alumni posts, this could really become a hub for discovering interesting social media activities among the alumni.

Beyond favoriting alumni posts, my biggest suggestion for improvement is give this page its own subdomain.  It would make a world of difference to the sense that this is a major initiative.
