Chicago 2016 Social Media Efforts

After presenting at the BMA breakfast luncheon last week, I had the chance to visit the Chicago 2016 Olympic bid offices. My friend Blagica is part of the social media team and got me an insider’s look into what they’re doing. It was really an inspiring couple of hours and it made me proud to be part of Chicago and, to a small extent, the bid itself.
Here are several of the efforts they’re using as part of the social media initiative. Feel free to pass these along or tell others about them:
- Chicago 2016 Website
- Facebook Groups – Chicagoans, Bloggers, Volunteers, and several more.
- Chicago 2016 on Twitter
- Chicago 2016 on YouTube
- Chicago 2016 Flickr Group, Chicago 2016 Flickr Photos
And here’s a video I saw, which frankly, brought a tear to my eye. Enjoy.
