Will Pate’s Dad uses Social Media to tell his story

Categories: Social MediaPosted on January 6th, 2007

I like this story, and I think you will to. Will Pate’s Dad has polio, and as this video indicates, he’s using Social Media to tell his story, and make sure that those that need a voice are heard.

This is more personal for Will than it has anything to do with what he’s usually known for.  He was the primary community evangelist of the Browser Flock that never quite took off.  I know what it’s like for a family to use Social Media, two months ago, we chronicled our journey to our hometown in China (never been there before) using social media.

I enjoy Will’s last quote line on his post: “Godspeed to my Dad and everyone using these tools to make positive change in the world.”  Agreed.

  • From your comment in Will's site I became intrigued and linked to your family social media blog.

    That opened up a great story- felt like I was involved in a PBS documentary. Which I completed by browsing the pics on flickr.

    Thank you
