Hoosier Tourism in Social Media

Posted by Jeremy Williams on December 5, 2008

I wrote a post about DMOs and attractions across the state who are blogging, but here are a few who are involved in other social media initiatives. I’m sure that I missed several entities, but here are some good examples of organizations who have moved beyond blogging and are participating in other Web 2.0 initiatives.
Other Social Media Initiatives:
  • Hamilton County – They have recently launched their own Video Magazine. This is another great use of new technology. Web 2.0 is all about taking advantage of new social media and broadband penetration.
  • Lake County – Like Hamilton County, Lake County has several podcasts and other videos on their site. Be sure to post the videos to your YouTube account too!
  • Lawrence County – Lawrence County has a Flickr account where they share some great photos.
  • Switzerland County – Check out Switzerland County’s Flickr account too.
  • Columbus Cell Phone Tour – This is a great innovation and a way to work with a pervasive technology (the cell phone) in a new and interactive way.
  • Madison Cell Phone Tour – Similar to Columbus’ cell phone tour, Madison now has one as well.
  • Madison Podcasts – Madison has some great video podcasts on their site now.
  • Holiday World – Holiday World is on Twitter now, follow them (@HolidayWorld).
