Web 2.0 Boot camp (continued)
In November, a group of professional communicators met to participate in TPRA’s Web 2.0 Boot camp on Texas State University’s beautiful Round Rock campus. This seminar offered participants the opportunity to directly interact via their own laptops with subject matter experts on emerging trends in social media in a fully WI-FI supported lecture hall.
Based on feedback from the attendees, the seminar was a huge success, where straight talk about competing social media platforms was combined with hands-on instruction. It was so good, we’re considering offering it again next year.
Special thanks are due Texas State University and Dr. Judy Oskam for hosting and assisting in developing the event, TPRA President-Elect Scott White and his committee for delivering world-class growth opportunities for our members, and Board Member Christina Moore, for raising the bar for MC professionalism to a whole new level. She came dressed in Marine Corps fatigues and conducted the meeting in Corps style (with tongue firmly in cheek).
If Web 2.0 and current trends in Twittering, texting, and Del.icio.us are making you dizzy, let me assure you there’s a cure. Dr. TPRA was there to heal, and all you had to do was show up, preferably with a WI-FI equipped laptop. Thanks to all involved and our excellent speakers for making this fall seminar a special success.
