What are we going to learn?

Problem: Posting Phone Number Solution: Google Voice

Google Voice gives you one number for all your phones -- a phone number that is tied to you, not to a device or a location. Use Google Voice to simplify the way you use phones, make using voicemail as easy as email, customize your callers' experience, and more.

All the features are free, except for calls outside the United States or Canada

Online Protection

Why you should network?

LinkedIn’s Approach:◦ “A person should only connect to people they

personally know”

LION’s Approach:◦ “Accept invitations from anyone. You never know

who may be able to help you.”

Write tweets you’d be comfortable having your priest, mother, and children read.

The Secret to Success

YOU ARE IN CONTROL RELAX

There is no secret formula to conquering Twitter beyond writing within the confines of 140 characters.

Make existing professional relationships stronger and more intimate.

I know where Jane’s traveling this week and that Joe’s caught that flu going around. This makes them more human to me and it’s a decent substitute for meeting physically.

How do Professionals use Social Media?

Say you’re trying to find the right code for Powershell but it keeps giving you errors. Tell your Twitter friends and someone might be able to help you. Now, you wouldn’t have emailed all those people to ask and you wouldn’t have instant messaged them either… but a broadcast message to those paying attention is a lightweight non-intrusive way to do it.

Get questions answered.

By paying attention to @ messages, you see who people you’re working with are working with. If the discussion is interesting enough, you might find someone you’d like to follow on Twitter… and eventually work with.

Expand your professional network.

I don’t tweet every time I post something, but sometimes if it’s one I’m especially proud of or one I want quick feedback on, I’ll post a bit.ly to it.

Promote your blog posts

I just looked at my Twitter page and noticed that one of my friends is already trying out the new Thai restaurant. Now I know who to talk to get an opinion on it.

See what people are interested in.

Nobody wants to bother someone when they’re in the middle of an important project, but IM presence indicators aren’t totally reliable. On the other hand, if someone twitters that they’re “searching for something to do” you know it’s a good time to check in with them.

Find out when your colleagues are available for a chat.

Though Twitter’s not ideal for this lacking as it is in temporary groups or any groups at all, I’ve seen it used effectively to bring together conference attendees and conference “watchers” — people who aren’t at the conference but would like to know what’s going on.

#_________ is used to ask panelist questions during a confrence

Create an ad hoc back channel at conferences.

I’m much less dependent on my newsreader now because I hear about cool stuff all day via Twitter. For example:

Starbucks was giving away free coffee Free Ice Cream at Baskin Robbins Fire at Cairo Museum

Learn important news.
