I don’t think the DA get’s it…

February 19th, 2009 | by kilps |

With their shiny new website and all, the DAhas been trying to engage more and more with social media. One of those means has been Helen Zille’s Twitter account.

It’s nice and all getting updates from the leader of the opposition. But Twitter is meant to be about conversation – with that nifty little reply feature. So far we’re just getting a one way conversation here – as far as I can tell Ms Zille does not reply to questions, at all.

This came out of me asking who the other faces on the DA’s election posters are (I think the same people are on the website…) and getting no response – but a quick search along with her profile suggests that it’s just what happens.

    I do agree, it’s about engaging with the users and not just providing updates. But, give it some time, they are learning and hopefully being guided in the right direction..

    True, but you’d think they’d work this all out…
