About
GovCon: The Government Contractors Network
You might say we’re in a “quiet period” and unable to elaborate on our plans. But look around and you’ll find that we currently offer real time news from a large number of sources via our Twitter accounts and our Website. We also offer a Web directory of resources for government contractors that includes a directory of GovCons (listings are free).
We have big plans and look forward to working for and with you!
Twitter:
Twitter is an excellent tool for disseminating information as close to real time as possible. So we rely heavy on this tool to stay abreast of the latest news and to share that news with followers. We’ve establish several feeds with distinctly different content because we believe this helps to ensure our tweets are more relevant and manageable.
Each weekday and over the weekend we screen hundreds, perhaps thousands, of articles, posts, tweets and Websites prior to sharing them with you in an effort to capture all of the important information flowing in our industry without overwhelming you with the chatter and less relatively unimportant news.
Follow any or all of our Twitter accounts:
@GovCon – Our primary account is used for maintaining relationships with other twitter-ers, sharing company news, and for the most important industry news and developments.
@GovConNews - Rather than overwhelm our core followers that may already be following some of the major sources of relevant news we share the steady stream of top industry news using this account. Someday we believe government contracting professionals will be able to rely on this one news “feed” to stay abreast of the most important industry news.
@GovCon20 – This unique content is for those of you who are either using or want to learn more about the Web 2.0 and other tools and resources available. Topics include YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Blogging, Cloud computing, and all of the other hot technologies that are changing how B2G is done.
@GovConU – These tweets are for those new to government contracting that want to take advantage of the wealth of experience out there that comes across in tweets, blog posts, seminars, Webinars, etc…. We find the best sources of advice, how-to guides, events, and share those with followers.
@GovConLaw – Government contract law is unique and complicated. We are following legislation, legal cases, relevant news, blog posts, and alerting followers via tweets.
@GovConJobs - If you are looking for a position in the government contracting industry or looking for a contracting professional, this is a valuable Twitter account for you. We hunt for every open position mentioned in the Twitterverse and re-tweet it so it’s not missed.
