Community Transit has created a profile on the popular social networking Web site Facebook.com to help with its outreach and communication efforts. The new profile will be used to share information and agency initiatives with riders and the general public who are signed up to the site. Visitors to the profile can share comments and feedback on the agency’s service and plans.
People can also become a “fan” of the agency, which brings information directly to that person’s own profile and allows that user’s friends to see their interest in Community Transit. These “fans” will be able to learn about upcoming projects such as Swift bus rapid transit and the ORCA smart card, and can check out the events calendar to learn when and where Community Transit is active in their community. Visitors can also take part in ongoing discussions and have a chance to win a free monthly bus pass.
