    Allen Magtibay replied to the topic What Should We Do for GovLoop’s 1-Year Anniversary? in the forum Miscellaneous 11 years, 6 months ago

    Lets bring in a cake for the event. You can’t have a birthday party without one. Also, party favors are a nice touch. I do like the idea of streaming both events live. Maybe we can create a short video of the event and post it here, FB, Youtube, etc. Nice way to market Govloop and its members.

    Allen Magtibay replied to the topic How are you using social media for recruitment in your agency? in the forum Forum Discussions 11 years, 8 months ago

    Andy,

    I posed a question very similar to your topic to the members of my social networking site at USPHS World. I had read an article on MSNBCon how the Army was using Facebook and Twitter to target recruits and the success they were having with this program. After reading this article, I started thinking that perhaps the US Public Health…[Read more]

    @0iwdfbjhxrsu2Wow. Manhattan, KS. I use to live there. I was in the Army stationed at Fort Riley, KS from 1997 to 1999. I wonder has it changed much since I was there? Anyway, welcome to the community. This is a great place to learn new ideas that you can take back to your own job.

    @isodadh85fzlI know I need to do that. I’ve referenced my project several times here and there but need to keep a continuous blog in order to get some feedback. I bet many of the issues that I’m facing with my project such as user participation, security, and discussion topics are common with other social networking initiatives that people here…[Read more]

    Allen Magtibay replied to the topic Who is Reading What? What are the last 6 Books You Read? in the forum Miscellaneous 11 years, 8 months ago

    Since its been referenced so many times here I picked up What Would Google Do? I totally agree that for anyone who is interested in Web 2.0 this is great book to start off with. I’m also reading Beat the Reaper by Josh Bazell. My wife read this book and passed it onto me about two weeks ago. I normally don’t read two books at once but they are so…[Read more]

    @isodadh85fzlEmma,

    I enjoyed your webinar on your Spacebook project. Your lessons learned on this project will help me with my own social networking initiative that I’m working on–USPHS World. Thanks for taking the time to present.

    @1okei8kldehw2Isabel,

    I’m glad to see you that you joined this site. There is a ton of information here. I’ve learned so much about Web 2.0 from the dicussions on this site. Also, there are quite a few people here who are currently working in Healthcare too.

    Allen Magtibay replied to the topic Information Technology at National Institutes of Health in the forum Job Openings 11 years, 9 months ago

    David,

    I believe NIH has a central office for IT called CIT. I think it stands for Center for Information Technology. Also, I think each of the institutes have their own IT divisions as well. I assume they report up to CIT. The CIT offers services not only to programs within NIH but other federal agencies as well. I know that they offer hosting…[Read more]

    @1bge1ngvndvtlThanks for your comments on my latest blog posting. The Web 2.0 site that I’m working on is primarily meant for officers to collaborate on. Since the Commissioned Corps represent a small group in HHS we need to have something that is common to only us regardless of which agency an officer is assigned to. I think a wiki is something…[Read more]

    Allen Magtibay started the topic GSA signs agreements with Web 2.0 Providers. in the forum Forum Discussions 11 years, 10 months ago

    I just received this news in my email today. It seems GSA has signed agreements with Web 2.0 providers–Flickr, YouTube, Vimeo, and blip.tv. The article mentions that GSA will continue to negotiate deals with additional Web 2.0 providers. It also mentioned that Twitter is already approved for use since its terms of service is already compatible…[Read more]

    Mary

    I’ve worked with GSA in the past on a contract that was procured through the Millennia Lite GWAC. Overall, my experience with GSA on this contract was very good. The staff who I interacted with were very knowledgeable in what they did. I would definitely look to GSA again for future proucurements.

    However, like Steve suggested I believe GSA…[Read more]

    Allen Magtibay replied to the topic True or false: the largest challenges the federal government faces with regards to on-line sharing is within its own organizational work culture in the forum Forum Discussions 11 years, 10 months ago

    You bring up some interesting points. I think the government in general tends to lag behind private industry when it comes to implementing new technology such as social networking. There are probably a number of reasons for this to include lack of funds, lack of understanding by users, and a lack of support by management. Hopefully more and more…[Read more]

    Lovisa

    I created a social networking site specifically for US Public Health Corps officers called USPHS World at http://www.usphsworld.org. PHS officers work in all of the HHS agencies plus several other federal departments to include DHS, DOD, EPA, NOAA, DOJ, and DOI. One of the biggest problems that the PHS Corps has is officers communicating…[Read more]

    @1vtvuh2zqviyvBrent

    Good luck trying to spread Web 2.0 within your department. I think my department can benefit too with the use of more Web 2.0. I’m currently working on a push to implement more Web 2.0 in the US PHS Corps

    @3o9k2l1dffr2jHi I’m interested to learn more about the Army’s plans on social networking. I was prior Army so I’m familiar with AKO. In fact, I still have my user account. I’m looking at implementing social networking for the US Public Health Corps. Perhaps I can get some intel on what our sister service is doing. Thanks

    Allen Magtibay replied to the topic GovLoop Friendships in the forum Forum Discussions 11 years, 10 months ago

    I agree with Thera that many times people are requesting friendships due to common interests in people’s profiles. This way you can keep track of the individuals whose input or comments you tend to keep track of. Also, it sets up the opportunity to pose questions and bounce ideas of that person later.

    @24eekd5vt4huyPete have you ever looked into the US Public Health Corps. We work in all agencies within HHS. Check out http://www.usphs.gov to learn more. Good luck.

    @24z7fh2mrg3pjWas about to interview for a position with NCI last year when FDA came in and offered me a position. I was really considering it because I lost a family member to cancer and want nothing more to finding a cure. Anyway its nice to see HHS folks on this site.
