Rotary International Comments:
Kalyan Banerjee, a member of the Rotary Club of Vapi, Gujarat, India, since 1972, is the 2011-12 president-nominee.
Are you on Facebook yet? Keep in mind that social networking works differently from traditional marketing, so if you decide to dive in, be open to the possibilities. ‚ÄúYou don‚Äôt know how it can expand and connect you,‚ Schinkel says. ‚ÄúYou can‚Äôt predict exactly how it‚Äôs going to work.‚
If you register on Facebook, put in the word ‚ÄúRotary‚ at the search window and be prepared to be amazed at the number of times it shows up.
To get the most out of it, Howat, a member of the Rotary Club of North Whidbey Island Sunrise, Wash., has this advice: ‚ÄúSocial networking is never about you. It is about what you can do for other people,‚ he says. ‚ÄúIt‚Äôs almost as if it‚Äôs along the [lines of] Service Above Self.‚
