Workshop on Building Social Networks/Growing Communities

Thought this might be of interest to fellow EMLT1 students - social networking blogger Laurel Papworth is holding a workshop on June 20 in Sydney on the following:

“A one day seminar with a workshop component designed to get you thinking on your feet and engaging with the latest techniques to build and manage fast growing social networks.

This course is focussed on how business needs can be met by supporting an online social network and is ideal for those with a reasonable grasp of user applications such as blogs, wikis, and tagging - even if you are currently a forum or community leader, you may not have thought of all the insights this course presents on running a community.
Attending LAMP Insight Seminars are a great opportunity for participants to:

• Identify the strengths and weaknesses of existing social networks
• Explore the emerging opportunities of online media to enrich creative projects
• Evaluate tools and techniques for building online communities
• Stay up to date with the latest cutting edge work in web 2.0, mobile media, advanced TV, games and virtual worlds

• A light lunch is provided “
