NASA + GSFC + FACEBOOK = SPACEBOOK

Social Media tools slow to take root, Federal Computer Week

"Everybody's talking about Web 2.0, but only some are using it. Although agencies are
adopting collaborative and social-networking tools to work smarter and faster, they are
doing so only in pockets. However, some of those pockets are deep. This spring, NASA's
Goddard Space Flight Center will launch a social-networking Web site, names Spacebook,
for employees. The site will mimic Facebook and feature individuals' profiles, expertise,
and personal interests, said Linda Curetorn, cheif information officer at Goddard."
Editors's note: Something called "Spacebook" already exists.
