RiverOak the American company that want to build an
airfreight hub on the old Manston Airport site have joined Pinterest. I only
noticed this because they have been doing some rewriting of their website http://www.riveroakinvestments.co.uk/
recently. I keep an eye on it, as they seem to be shuffling towards engaging in
social media. A couple of months ago they introduced a comment form on their
news page http://www.riveroakinvestments.co.uk/news/
and for a while it looked as though they were going to engage with the public.
What in fact happens though is you comment and they don’t publish it, to my
mind a very strange way to behave which begs some questions about their future
communication if they build a massive airfreight hub in the middle of Thanet.
Anyway their site rewrite is a bit strange as instead of doing the expected;
writing a new website, testing it works and then swapping it for the old one
they are doing it bit by bit online. It’s a bit of a clumsy approach but then I
guess they are not very ITC savvy or they would have a better managed internet
presence. Here is the link to their Pinterest account https://uk.pinterest.com/riveroaki/manston-airport/
I would say the lesson here is either keep it up to date and do it well or
don’t do it at all. Mind you looking at the main American site it looks as
though a couple of years ago they had some sort of ITC problem and are still
trying to sort it.

A fine bunch to choose from.
at least consider that if you don't vote you shouldn't complain afterwards.
Next The East Kent Critic, I am taking the lead from RiverOak here and publishing out of date news, we shall call it Olds
Click on the pictures of the pages and they should expand, click on the expanded page and it should expand again, if you are using a laptop or pc. With a phone or tablet tap the page and when it has loaded you should be able to expand it by moving your fingers apart on the picture of the page.

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
