Social Media

[Giles]

We know that some forms of social media are disliked/despised by some.  That however, does not mean that we should ignore them.

Perhaps the most talked about is Facebook.  Well, I know some of you hate it, but there is a large demographic who love it and simply don't utilise stuff like forums.  It is sensible for us to try to talk to the various demographics in the way that they feel most comfortable with.

So to that end, we do use Twitter, we do have a Facebook fan page, we do do Pinterest and we do have a Tumblr presence.

Just because we have decided to have a presence on Facebook does not mean you personally have to join in, so I hope that this thread does not become an "I'd never do that" ranting thread.  Please leave that to Random rants.

We are attempting to make all media as content rich as possible, so would love it if you would start uploading relevant stuff to Facebook.  http://www.facebook.com/pages/Iron-Heart-International/326582554055225

You can upload photos and videos by clicking on "Add Photo / Video"

Do you want us to just tag IH in our photos? That way we don't have to get into the "I don't want my pictures tagged" argument

Nice idea, and it'll spread the load across the forum. Rather than just the Admin/Mod Squad.

I shall start soon.

who ever is running the twitter feed is really doing a great job, haven't looked at the others recently . . .

You can tag photos if you would like to. You can also upload photos, status updates, videos, or events to the IH FB page as tried to articulate above. If someone doesn't want to be on FB, then they won't tag themselves or upload their images to the IH Fan Page. If you are one of the people who has previously requested your images not be put on the FB page from the forum, we will continue to honor your wishes. If you change your mind, feel free to let me know. If you have not told us previously but would like to, send me a PM and we will make sure to exclude you from FB.

I was actually a little surprised when I searched Instagram and didn't see anything under #ironheartarmy. I searched #ironheart and was underwhelmed to say the least. I'm more interested in seeing pics from this community…not that I don't love this forum! Show us your twitter/instagram denim (close-up, fit, unboxing, etc) pics by using #ironheartarmy hashtag. If you search that hashtag now, you will see my first "submission"…my new 25oz #IH666XHS' recently purchased from Jord666. I have to say it was a painful first day in 25oz denim. I think I need to hang those babies up until the weather cools down a bit 

[Bigbertha]

This is also a another great way to connect with this very special community of denim enthusiasts…

[natehate]

if you follow g and h and then check suggestions a few of us will pop up for sure on twitter

I found your images via #ironheart and noticed the tag usage. I like it, it keeps out the others using just #ironheart. Another 1 I like that I think I saw you use was #21oz. Nice tag!
