[Powys] Social Media & The Accessible Web @ [Fwd: Green Drinks 8th July, 2010]

[Richard Smedley]

On Thursday evening I'll be giving a very condensed version
of how to use social media to help your organisation at
the Shrewsbury Green Drinks meeting.

Green Drinks is also a great chance to network with
environmental professionals, campaigners and green
social entrepreneurs.

Everyone is welcome to attend. Details below.
Please feel free to pass on details to relevant
groups and individuals.

"We've all seen major organisations run successful campaigns through
Social Media like Twitter and Facebook - but how does a small
organisation or solo campaigner get started?
"Which networks to choose, and what to say? And just where are you
supposed to find the time?
"Richard Smedley gives a brief introduction based on the successful
'Social Media & the Accessible Web' course that he teaches to community
groups and social enterprises.  "Richard provides consultancy on
sustainable technology, and training on Free & Open Source Software, to
