We just started doing it. I created a YouTube corporate account over a year ago and now we’re an education partner. I’ve also created a corporate Flickr and Twitter account and we’ve also got a Facebook page. I spend more time on these when I’ve got a bit of spare time and do the bare minimum when I’m busier. The buy-in comes after the sites are created and for the most part has been positive.

I’m not having trouble with buy-in in my immediate vicinity, but it is a problem with administration and older faculty members. They’re afraid social networking isn’t “dignified” or that we’ll look “bad.”

I’m the social networking guru by default–I have the expertise and I make the time. My attempts to pull students in have been futile. No one except me wants to hand over responsibilities to students. They’re afraid of what they’ll say. I say bring it! I can’t even get support for student-produced audio and video. It’s insane.

Brad – I was the first one to answer your tweet, and I have to admit to being a little flip in my answer … I’m lucky to have buy-in here for the things that the web team and I have just gone ahead and done – Twitter, 2 facebook pages, dabbling with posting on YouTube and Flickr. My problem is two-fold: 1) I need the concentrated time to pull these things together and actually DO something with them and 2) I just don’t know where is the best place to put my efforts first (although I think it has to be blogs). Plus I have to admit I’m more than a little afraid of failing if I can’t put enough effort in to make this worthwhile. To which I can hear both you and @kylejames answer “Don’t be afraid to fail – just try it and if it doesn’t work out, try something else!” Still, it’s all a little daunting.

Thanks for a good post + comments that give a lot to think on!
