In Colorado? On Feb 23 – Author U's Dinner and a Program from 6 to 9.

        What’s New, What’s Old, What Works, and What     Doesn’t in Social Media ...

Love or hate social media, it’s here to stay. If you are bemused, bewildered, and befuddled, let Melody Jones bewitch and beguile you with clarity. You’ll leave with detailed handouts, an understanding of the most well-known platforms including Facebook and Twitter, and all the latest and greatest about the new (big) kid on the block Google+.

Bring your laptop because we’re gettin’ real with Google+. You’ll join, find and connect with your Author U buddies in Circles, learn how to interact in real time using the Google+ Hangout feature, and create a business page. Come prepared by opening a Google account prior to the meeting and knowing the email AND password you opened it with.

But wait, there’s more:

• Tweet This – why when you tweet, what you tweet, and where you place your link matter
• Schedule That – make a new plan, Stan, and set yourself free with a social media schedule you’ll fill in before the night slips out the back, Jack
• In Your Face(book) – why you must be real, be informative, and be wary of overload
• Ch-ch-changes – what they are and why you should care on Facebook and Twitter
• The Greatest Match of All Time: Facebook vs. Google+
• Attention Class! Social media lessons from 2011 and what you can learn from them
• Never Stop Learning: Top 10 social media information resources

Be prepared to interact, have fun, and make friends with social media.
