Fairfax County has a presence on Facebook, MySpace and Youtube. The news release can be seen at: http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/news/2008/126.htm In addition the Police Department uses these sites regularly in investigations (its surprising what some people will post online). Our purchasing Department posts selected surplus items for sale on Craigslist, although the actual auctions are on PublicSurplus.com. Our IT department blocks social networking from our internal network, however will make exceptions for individual users who can make a business case for access. Brian A. Conley, Asst.
