In response to Ariel's question I think most college aged smokers are generally to busy worrying about grades, and studying to have the time to get involved in the pro-smoking movement. Keep in mind also that most college students, (including myself) get their news through the internet and social networking groups (i.e. facebook, twitter). Does forces have a youtube channel? If not, (I've never seen one) then that would be an easy way to inform large groups of people, and, it doesn't seem like it would be that hard to simply transfer some of the videos from the multimedia section of forces to youtube.
Hello and Welcome 5aday! Maryetta here, president of FORCES International and admin here. We do have facebook page for me, but not one just for forces.org (
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id= ... 5&ref=name) and youtube (
http://www.youtube.com/FORCESInternational)- but we do not have volunteers to keep either populated or active - as was the case with the change.org (
http://www.change.org/forces)site also. Should anyone be interested in taking on the responsibility of keeping those site active (copy and paste content from forces.org or original material) either the youtube or change.org sites it would be greatly appreciated. One does not have to do both or all, there can and should be a person for each site. Creating a facebook page for forces.org is needed also. As you can see our Board members cannot do everything - we need volunteers to expand into the various social media sites or they end up as obsolete, stagnant pages- in that case "nothing is better than something"!
