2,000 Likes on Delmarva History’s FB page.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Thanks, everyone for liking Delmarva History on FB.<\/a>\u00a0 As winter draws to a close, we hit 2,000 likes on this Friday in the middle of March.\u00a0\u00a0 It was in\u00a0the midst of our snowy season, February 4, 2015, when we passed another important milestone, 1,500 likes.<\/a><\/p>\n

We appreciate your engagement and support as the page\u00a0shares curated and original heritage-related content about the culture and history of the Delmarva Peninsula and the land around the Delaware and Chesapeake.\u00a0 As you make this a lively\u00a0place by commenting and sharing other materials, it makes the effort worthwhile since we all learn through collaboration.<\/p>\n

As heritage organizations, informal groups, and individuals embraced Facebook as a\u00a0public commons, we all have had a platform that allows everyone to share our joy and appreciation for the past, whether it\u2019s a local area or a special topic.\u00a0 Just look around Delmarva, as an example, for there are so many fine\u00a0pages\u00a0creating broader contact for the stories and materials from the past.\u00a0 (notice the other pages that share their posts with us.)<\/p>\n

We all come at this in various ways,\u00a0levels of involvement and purpose.\u00a0 For formal groups it\u2019s an efficient way to further the organization\u2019s outreach mission of informing, educating, and promoting the stories of a community, which engage new, broader audiences.\u00a0 Others create informal communities\u00a0sharing their\u00a0interest in covered bridges, railroads, waterways, organizations, and much more.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll keep posting\u00a0original and curated pieces from the region, and thanks for following the page.\u00a0 It\u2019s been amazing to see the quick growth as we networked with older, more established formal and informal sites, while also\u00a0adding our original content, photos, articles, and brief updates.<\/p>\n

When we launched Delmarva History on October 24, 2014, we weren\u2019t sure about this platform. But we\u2019d often thought about\u00a0the best way to share our personal collections and interests. This pubic commons provided the answer as it reaches such a broad audience,\u00a0is so easy to use, and there is virtually no learning curve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
