The Flair Media Minute v2.0
I’m giving a webinar later today on social media (which I believe you’re welcome to attend, if you want.)
I’m supposed to tell public media people about my job and how they can use social media for their shows and stations. I have a power point presentation and some links and stuff but thought I’d ask if anyone has any specific advice, either for giving presentations (eek) or for people who might be getting on social media for the first time….

Day 2 of my new daily conversation starter. Like a water cooler moment for friends across the Interwebs. Yesterday’s topic was purely cultural so today’s is purely social media, although that is cultural too. Right?
My two cents worth for the attendees of NPR’s webinar is: LISTEN. We’ve all had tons of practice listening - putting our listening ears on and instructing kids to do the same - but we still rush in with responses and proclamations. why do we humans have such a hard time with a seemingly simple skill?
Yes, a little ironic that I’m asking for your response here, and if you do add your 2 cents, I’ll know you’ve been listening.
I just asked my listeners on Lexy Mobile how they would define social media. It’s the same question I asked - armed with my trusty Flip - of some passersby last Saturday afternoon. This is the first in a series I’m doing throughout the month of April. I’ll mix it up with the next installment’s answers coming from younger folks who have higher expectations of what the social web is all about.
Have a listen to the Lexy post (follow for future!), check out the video (posted it on our Facebook page (like us!), and MOST important please tell me how YOU define social media. Thanks!
Updates and upgrades and upsells - oh my! This HootSuite update is worth a look. We’ve been using it for a few years now and it just gets better and better.
