Blogging, Twitter, LinkedIn, audio and video on Web sites – what are they all about and why should you care? For starters, these tools can help you get noticed, get remembered and get business. Last spring, the Halton-Peel Communications Association (HPCA) sponsored a successful meeting about social media, with Dave Fleet as our guest speaker. Dave’s presentation sparked interest among many members who wanted to learn more about social media in a hands-on environment.

Now it’s time for the follow-up hands-on meeting! At 7 p.m. next Wednesday, October 28, 2009, at the Monte Carlo Inn in Oakville, you can experience blogging, Twitter and LinkedIn, plus the use of audio and video on Web sites, in a relaxed, supportive environment. Your facilitators are:

·       Rob Clark – blogging
·       Sue Horner – Twitter
·       Donna Papacosta – LinkedIn
·       Joan Vinall-Cox – audio and video
Each will demonstrate the particular tool at a table. You will have a chance to visit each table, depending on your interest, ask question and walk through what you need to know. Please bring your own laptop computer, if you have one.

Because of the hands-on nature of this meeting, space is limited. Register today by emailing Donna Papacosta at Donna AT Trafcom DOT com. HPCA members can attend for free; guests pay $20.

Sandwiches and beverages will be served. See you there?
