Recently, we stumbled upon the blog of Gov 2.0 guru David Meerman Scott mentioning that the Air Force had released a new video released discussing their intentions for using Web 2.0 technologies a.k.a social media tools. It was interesting, so we decided to share it with you.

Excerpt by Mike Kujawaski:

“This video, created by the Air Force Public Affairs Agency, Emerging Technology Division, shows how our Airmen are using social media to stay informed and inform others. Airmen have the ability to communicate and tell the Air Force story better than anyone else. By reaching out with social media tools, they’re able to it quickly and in their own voice. Every Airman is a communicator and these examples prove that. It’s time for you to tell your story.”

It runs a bit long, but it is worth listening to at the least.
