Hi all,
I'm attempting something new and getting pre-approved social for a post
we're putting up on the blog tomorrow morning. Those with WordPress access
can view a preview,
<https://wikimediablog.wordpress.com/?p=41409&preview=true> or read the
original Signpost article:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2015-03-25/Op-ed.
I'm also wavering between the current title ("My father's railroad
photographs now benefit the world, free of charge") and the former title
("How my father’s railroad image collection now benefits the world: the
value of digitization"). Comments on this would be delightful.
*Twitter:*
- Ever wonder how your parent's train-watching hobby could change the
world?
- The heartwarming story of how one man's railroad image collection now
benefits the world:
(those borrow from my tweets when this was first published in the Signpost)
*Facebook/Google+:*
- His dad's and grandfather's old photos had been “tucked away with
other family artifacts” and only ever brought out of storage “every dozen
years or so." Now they can be enjoyed by everyone in the world.
- Ever wonder how your parent's train-watching hobby could change the
world?
