The ladies from Hudson Fastener are at it again! Hudson Fastener, arguably the most active fastener Twitter people in the industry, have launched a new blog, and it aims to bring you all the fastener news that is out there to one site – www.FastenerNewsDesk.com
According to their news release, they “will aggregate, support, and promote all news related to the fastener industry.” They cover fasteners, aerospace, construction, additive manufacturing, advanced manufacturing, 3D printing, social media, technology, STEM, trade shows and everything in between. In short, they are spending a lot of time consolidating information from multiple media outlets and delivering the information to their Fastener News Desk site where you, the fastener industry professional, can conveniently scroll though and see what information is pertinent or useful to you.
You may already subscribe to some of the industry publications that they feature but there is a lot more information than that and it is definitely worth checking out. Additionally, the folks at Hudson Fasteners deserve some credit for trying to push the limits of how social media is being used in the fastener industry. There are certainly a lot of slow adaptors in our industry but that is not stopping the Hudson group from forging ahead and trying to engage the individuals who do see value and opportunity though the social media tools. Their Twitter feed, @FastenerNews recently reached over 2700 qualified followers and they have an additional 1300+ qualified members on LinkedIn. Over 1300 people currently view their online newspaper. Clearly, someone is out there on Twitter and LinkedIn and Hudson Fasteners is committed to networking with as many of them as possible. Check out their new blog and see for yourself.
