Talking about Social Media Monitoring and Measurement at Third Tuesday Ottawa

• • , , ,

Third Tuesday OttawaAre you wondering whether there are better ways to monitor what’s being said online about you and your organization? Are you looking for a way to manage the work process involved in monitoring and responding to what is happening out there? If so, you’ll find the next Third Tuesday Ottawa to be just what you need.

Next week’s Third Tuesday Ottawa will feature a panel of experts talking about the new tools we can use to stay on top of the conversation in social media and how this can be integrated with traditional media.

Chris Johnson, President of dna13, Craig Comeau from Radian6 and Parker Mason from CNW Group will lead a discussion on the convergence of new media with the mainstream media, and the value of a proper measurement program.

If you want to attend, reserve your place on the Third Tuesday Meetup site.

Third Tuesdays across the country continue to be free events for the community thanks largely to our national sponsor, CNW Group. Once again, they are sponsoring this session – and sending Parker Mason to Ottawa to round out our panel. Thank you CNW!

Here’s the description from the Third Tuesday sites:

Enterprise 2.0: How social media will change the future of work

Social media has taken the Internet by storm, generating an unprecedented level of audience participation in corporate communications and marketing that were previously tightly controlled.

Niall Cook is Hill & Knowlton’s worldwide director of marketing technology and author of Enterprise 2.0, one of the first books to explain the impact that social software will have inside companies.

Join Niall as he introduces this emerging landscape and the key concepts that make up ‘Enterprise 2.0’. Using examples from well known companies in different industry sectors, he will illustrate how to apply enterprise 2.0 thinking to encourage communication, cooperation, collaboration and connections between employees and stakeholders in your own company.

This will be a rare chance to meet and talk with a social media expert from the U.K. You can register online to attend Third Tuesday Toronto on October 7 or to attend Third Tuesday Ottawa on October 8.

Join us at Third Tuesday Ottawa – on a Monday

• • ,

If you are in Ottawa this Monday, May 5, join us at Third Tuesday Ottawa .

This month’s topic is The Shiny New Object Syndrome. We’ve assembled a panel of Colin McKay , Ryan Anderson and Brendan Hodgson to lead a discussion of which social media tools are most useful and which are just code looking for a reason to be.

Of course, the best part of Third Tuesday is the discussion. And that includes you. So, be ready to share your thoughts on which tools are most useful and which just don’t make sense to you. It should be a great conversation and an even better one if you participate. So, plan to join us Monday. You’ll meet some interesting people.

As always, special thanks to our sponsors, CNW Group . CNW has supported us through this entire season – and their contribution has enabled us to keep Third Tuesdays as free events for the social media community.

Third Tuesday Ottawa is back

• • ,

We’re back. After several months hiatus (darn that burst appendix!), we’re restarting the Third Tuesday Ottawa social media meetups.

It seems that almost every day, we hear an announcement of a new social media tool, social network or open standard that the inventors tell us we soon won’t be able to live without. At this month’s Third Tuesday Ottawa, we have a panel of Colin McKay , Ryan Anderson and Brendan Hodgson to lead a discussion of which social media tools are most useful and which are just code looking for a reason to be.
So, if you’re confused by all the shiny new objects and want to know which you should use or, better yet, you want to share with others your views on which are useful and which don’t make the grade, join us at the next Third Tuesday Ottawa on May 5. (Yes, it’s a MONDAY. But that’s the day we could get the speakers and book the ClockTower.).

We’re looking forward to seeing you there.

As always, special thanks to our sponsors, CNW Group . CNW has supported us through this entire season – and their contribution has enabled us to keep Third Tuesdays as free events for the social media community.
