PBS on Facebook

PBS is now using Facebook. With a core audience of 50 and 60-year-olds, PBS is finally joining the social media trend by promoting its broadcast of a new documentary on American Experience, “Earth Days”.

And … if PBS can do it, so can I!  I’m committed to actually using Facebook this year to further the mission of New Doc Editing…to help documentary filmmakers structure inspiring, engaging films that will keep their viewers glued to the screen.  And I’m also going to get my Twitter account up and running (thanks to Michael Behrens and Tiffany Shlain for the encouragement).

You can find out more about how PBS is promoting “Earth Days” at the New York Times website:
