View source for Portland NET Tumblr

The Portland NET Tumblr, aka [https://portlandnet.tumblr.com/ "The NET Coordinator's File Cabinet"], is a [[wikipedia:Microblogging|microblogging]] news blotter with posts relevant to Portland NET and the discipline of emergency management generally. PBEM recommends volunteers visit the Tumblr and scan through article headlines at least once a week, reading any articles they find particularly interesting.

The Tumblr exists to:

* '''Keep volunteers up to date on news around emergency management-relevant topics.''' This is a dynamic and frequently shifting field, after all.
* '''Provide supplemental information for [[Volunteer Support Functions (VSFs)|Volunteer Support Function]] (VSF) topics.''' For example, articles related to pet rescue are tagged VSF17 for easy sorting and review.
* '''Serve as an emergency management research hub.''' Some volunteers (and non-volunteers who know our work) are researching specific EM topics. With those topics organized by tagging, researchers can find the information they need quickly.
* '''Recognize the amazing work of volunteers.''' On the Tumblr, you'll find photos and information about what your fellow NETs are doing.
* '''[https://portlandnet.tumblr.com/tagged/funny Post fun stuff]'''. Emergency management can get pretty dour if we let it.

The Tumblr is used '''''only''''' for the purposes listed above. It is never used for calendar events or scheduling; that is handled through the volunteer management system and other means. This resource is free to use and 100% publicly viewable; getting a Tumblr account is not necessary.

== How to Use the NET Tumblr ==
The most basic use of the Tumblr is simple: just go to the link and start scrolling: https://portlandnet.tumblr.com/

But, there are ways you can effectively search for specific information on the Tumblr. To learn that, please take about five minutes to watch this instructional video and you will emerge a Tumblr ninja:

== Posting and Formatting Photos ==
[[File:Photo Post Formatting.jpg|alt=An example of a photo about to be posted to Tumblr, in the correct format with all the necessary information. Click to enlarge.|thumb|An example of a photo about to be posted to Tumblr, in the correct format with all the necessary information. Click to enlarge.]]
PBEM uses the Tumblr [https://portlandnet.tumblr.com/archive/filter-by/photo to post photographs] of NET activities. For good recordkeeping and consistency, all photos of NET activities must be uniformly formatted. If that level of detail seems extreme, then never hope to be assigned organizing, classifying, and dating literally thousands of NET photos with no labels.

Note the example below. Every published photo or photoset should be captioned thusly:

'''Title of Event'''

'''Date:''' for publishing format is spelled out month, day, year (e.g. "November 12, 2022")

'''Location:''' can be approximate, or even as broad as the neighborhood's name

'''Credit''': name of the person who took the photo

Below that bloc of information, add a description of what is happening. If possible, include the names of everyone in the picture. 

'''Tags:''' don't forget to tag the post appropriately. In the example to the right, the post is tagged as "[https://portlandnet.tumblr.com/tagged/deployment deployment]".

'''DO NOT''' '''publish photos that include minors''' if PBEM has not obtained a photo release for the minor signed by a parent or guardian. The completed parental consent form should be archived at PBEM alongside the photo itself.

<span style="color:#ffffff">...</span>

== Tumblr Tag Catalog ==
As of December 2022, there was over 6,000 articles in the Tumblr. All of them are sorted by one tag or more (i.e. one blog entry can possess multiple tags). But what are the tags? All of them are cataloged and linked below in the sortable table. 


'''†''' = indicates a tag that PBEM is phasing out, and it should not be used in future posts.
