“Social Media”<\/strong><\/span> – absolutely …. everywhere<\/strong><\/em>!  And that includes UVic!<\/p>\n

SPOILER ALERT #1<\/em><\/strong><\/span> – I personally am not that much into “Social Media<\/em><\/strong><\/span>“. Go ahead and use Google to search for me, but .. not much there! Besides this post is about UVic social media!<\/p>\n

… AND THERE ARE
\n<\/strong>MORE UVIC SITES<\/a>
\n<\/span>THAN I IMAGINED!<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n
\"OAC<\/a>
                   OAC Online Academic Community<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

OAC or Online Academic Community<\/a><\/strong><\/span> (WordPress) is the most visible and most used by yours truly, so it is #1 on my list of UVic social media!<\/p>\n

If you are reading this … YOU ARE AT OAC<\/a><\/strong><\/span>! Valid UVic NetLink credentials gives you not just a free site, but FREE SITES<\/strong><\/span> PLURAL<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/span>! Make one for courses, for photos, for recipes or for … anything you want! In fact, some courses might even allow for it to be a project or an actual assignment!<\/p>\n

\"UVIC<\/a>
                        UVIC Facebook<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

And of course, Facebook<\/a><\/strong><\/span>. EVERYONE has a Facebook account! Spoiler Alert #2<\/strong><\/em><\/span> – I DO have a Facebook account … but good luck finding it!<\/p>\n

One of the BEST UVic OAC sites is My UVic Life<\/a><\/strong><\/span>! Written by and for students at UVic always has a timely, informative and FUN perspective on life at UVic!<\/p>\n

\"Computer<\/a>
Computer Help Desk Twitter<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

And The Computer Help Desk<\/a><\/strong><\/span> (shameless plug, yet again!) has a Twitter account to let the UVic community know about any issues affecting them!<\/p>\n

\"Official<\/a>
      Official UVIC Social Media<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

When I went to find a list OF all the social media at UVIC, I found the following site of all the Official UVic Accounts<\/a><\/strong> … to the right …<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A great list of sites! But then ….. right at the bottom, there is a line that says ‘<\/span><\/span>See the full<\/a><\/strong><\/span> list:<\/a><\/span> uvic.ca\/socialmedia<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span>‘<\/strong> and it takes you to THIS BELOW! The treasure chest of ALL UVic social media sites! WOW AND WOW!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It is truly amazing how many Departments, Programs, Services, Galleries and …  YOU NAME IT …  have a social media account of some kind! Everything from “Academic Communication, Centre for (CAC)<\/a><\/strong><\/span>” to “Youth and Society, Centre for<\/a><\/strong><\/span>” … JUST<\/strong> <\/em>shy of a ‘Z’ category … and missing ‘X’ too!<\/p>\n
