Hands On Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, Flickr, Youtube
Saturday, June 1, 2009 / 9am-4pm-Hyannis, MA

Social media. Everyone is telling you to follow them on twitter, from your newscaster to your hairdresser. Your daughter is concerned you'll show up on her facebook account, and you keep getting emails to LinkedIn, but can't figure out why people love it. You'd love to send photos online, but aren't sure how.... and don't get started on Youtube! What's the hype, and doesn't this all take a lot of time? Every day, people are telling you why you and your company SHOULD be using social media, but no one is telling you HOW to use it.

Bring your wifi enabled laptop, sit back and get ready to be shocked at how easy it is to dip into Social Media. We'll take you through how to set up an account, to how to use it and what neat tools each technology has.

We'll walk through Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Flickr and Youtube, all in one day. Step by step, at a quick but fun pace.  This is a beginner to intermediate class, but requires you have a wifi enabled laptop (you can follow along without one, but will be at a disadvantage) and are comfortable with your computer and the internet.
