Learn Five Web 2.0 Tools in One Day

Bring your WiFi-enabled laptop, and be ready for a hands-on, no fear, practical workshop. We'll teach you the basics of five Web 2.0/social media tools that can improve your personal and professional life:

1. How to participate in the blogosphere, and how to find the good blogs.
2. How to keep track of all that good information with RSS (Really Simple Syndication)
3. How to find all of those interesting people on Twitter
4. How to find the good job connections on LinkedIn
5. Number five will be picked by the class members: how to do something useful on YouTube (besides look for old Van Halen videos) OR how to use Creative Commons Flickr photos OR how to upload audio to Utterz from your cell phone.

Use your major credit card to register online through PayPal. When you register, we will ask for your input on topic number five plus a few questions on your own Web 2.0 background, so that the workshop is focused at the right level. We are limiting class size to 25 people, for the most personalized interaction. Lunch is included.

Your guides are Connie Reece and Sheila Scarborough.

Connie is one of the leading conversational writers in the US; she is regarded as a national leader in the field of social media and new media communications. She is the founder of Every Dot Connects.

 

 

 

Sheila is a writer, speaker and consultant specializing in travel, NHRA drag racing and Web 2.0/social media. She writes for five different blogs and is also a certified Navy Master Training Specialist, with many years of experience as a classroom instructor.
