Social Media Updates
Yesterday I completed the Adidas 5k women’s challenge and achieved my personal best time – 36 minutes. Now that the stress of training is over I’ve got a bit more free time to tell you about my social media updates.
In my last blog post I mentioned a new role I’d taken on and my continuing work for a local social media group. I’d like to tell you a bit more about these things now.
I’ve started contributing blog posts to Media 140. It’s an organisation that seeks to report on social media developments and challenge the way we think about and use it. They also organise events worldwide from workshops to conferences. You can read my first post here!
It’s exciting to be a part of this. If you’re a fan of social media you should definitely check it out. A wide variety of topics are covered and there are a few different contributors so it’s not just me talking!
I’m still running café events and our latest one happened last Friday 3rd September. If you’ve not heard of a social media café before, it’s essentially an opportunity for social media geeks and enthusiasts to get together offline for some coffee and cake.
We hold ours at Pepper Crescent, a local café renowned for delicious cakes. If it sounds like something you’d like to get involved with have a look online to see if there are any social media cafés local to you. For more info about the Cheltenham SMC you can find it on Twitter and Facebook as well as on the blog.
A secret project
Hmm, is it showing off to say that I’m actually involved in a few secret projects? Probably.
This particular secret project is not directly my responsibility but I will be helping out. Naturally it’s social media related and a big announcement is due on Wednesday 8th September. Follow @4squarestival on Twitter for details!
