6.2.1: Social Media
Enabling the Use of Social Media Across the Federal Government Other Information:
The Administration has updated its policies and created a new platform – Apps.gov – to foster the use of innovative new tools
to facilitate public engagement across the Executive branch. Apps.gov gives agencies access to several dozen (and growing)
free social media tools, such as blogs, wikis and social networks with appropriate terms of service as well as privacy and
accessibility protections. In addition many agencies have an employee innovation website and program in place to gather good
ideas for addressing challenges across the Federal workforce.
