Kami Huyse has posted “Best Practices: 10 Tips for Reaching Out to Social Media Influencers.” It’s a no-nonsense list that’s a great primer for those of you who don’t know the dos and don’ts (and some of you who just think you know).
Houston has a new non-profit, the Houston History Association:
It is our mission to promote Houston area history through education and serve as a resource for existing educational institutions, historical organizations, and archival groups. We are working to document neighborhood histories, recapture the past through oral histories, and inspire all citizens of greater Houston to learn more about their diverse culture and legacy.
We believe that Houstonians who are conversant with their history and especially with the role their own neighborhoods have played in that history will understand how vital it is that we cooperate to protect the various aspects of our shared past.
