On 17 December (12:15 – 14:15) bring your sandwich and your laptop to @HubBrussels (37 Rue du Prince Royal) for a hands-on interactive training seminar on how to change the world in 140 characters or less.
Space is limited to 15 participants – there are currently a few spots left. Please tell your colleagues in Brussels!
To register, send an email to training@internet4change.com with “Twitter” in the subject, or send a tweet to @ChristinasWorld with your name letting me know you want to attend. The cost is 10 euros for Hub members and 15 euros for other participants.
If you’ve received already received a confirmation back from me by email or personal tweet, below is some additional information to know before you join us on Dec 17th.
- Please come ready to work at Twitter.com. If you have not yet signed up for a Twitter account, please take 5 minutes to sign up before you come. Please know what your ID is, and keep your password handy.
- Because Twitter only allows 140 characters, it is common to use a URL shortener. While there are many URL shorteners out there, I recommend http://bit.ly because it also helps you see which or your links people are clicking on. You will need a bit.ly account at the course. Sign up for one now by giving them your twitter info (it takes 1 minute).
- Head over to Klout.com and quickly add your twitter info into an account there, as well. Klout analyzes your activity at Twitter over time and provides insights into the kind of influence you are achieving. It’s another one of the tools for maximizing your use of time at Twitter that I will be telling you about at the course.
I will post a wrap-up of the course here at the Internet4Change blog after it’s over, so you will have a place to connect with further questions after we’ve met.
Meanwhile, I look forward to seeing you on Thursday, and to much tweeting together in the future.
Christina
