journalism and social media open room
By Pat Law • Jun 23rd, 2009 • Category: Features, The Digital Strategist
Some time ago in March, we held an Open Room session for bloggers, about how one can market his or her blog like a brand. It was our way of giving back to the same community that gave us our jobs in the first place. Our show of commitment beyond dollars and cents, if you may.
Well, we’re back with another Open Room session, and this time, we will discuss the relationship journalism and social media have with one another – traditional versus new media, and how both mediums need each other to survive and grow. Ok, the co-dependency of both mediums is just my personal point-of-view.
Thomas Crampton, who heads Digital Influence in Asia Pacific (read: Pat’s boss), will be co-hosting this conversation with ex-journalist, Arti Mulchand. Incidentally, the boss has just video-blogged about his transition from journalism to digital strategy. Go watch it.
Invitations to this session is extremely limited so hurry along now and RSVP to my colleague, Niki Torres, if you’re interested in attending. Please do note that invites are on a first-come-first-served basis.
Details are as stated in the invite above shown.
