    Hi Allison,

    Sorry you had trouble registering! The shortcut to the registration page doesn’t seem to be working.

    Here’s the long way: http://bigtent.webex.com – click “Social Media 101: 10 TIps for…” and then click “Register”. You should be able to view and submit form that way.

    Looking forward to seeing you there!

    To state the obvious, do keep in mind that soc net platforms, rankings, SEO strategies, recommendation sites, Blogrolls, etc are all tools that are inert and useless, unless tied to defined biz objectives, without which they accumulate..but add up to nothing.

    Each of the various platforms serves a very different (or similar) function, and knowing them all or even most of them is a fools errand (and impossible). Let your objectives drive your participation. Do you want to drive buyers into the buying cycle? Are you seeking members to an organization. Do you want contributions to a cause. Are you trying to achieve branding or audience building. Know these, and you’ll know the how best to use the rest
    cheers

    Could you please send me an email about other webinars that might help me and my associates become more informed about how to use and profit from the use of Big Tent with the organizations I am associated with? I did sign up for this one, but would like one that is more of an overview of the whole process/business so I can share it with board/committee members of other groups I below to.

    I am associated with the particular Big Tent site I belong to now through another organization where one of the founding members knew about Big Tent and set up our site.

  26. 26 sjburke4960 April 4, 2010 at 6:26 pm

    Will this webinar be archived somewhere so people can visit it at another time?

  27. 27 mkjanice April 5, 2010 at 7:06 am

    Cannot attend but would like to receive materials (recording/transcript, slides, etc.) Many Thanks!

  32. 32 rebecca April 21, 2010 at 5:24 am

    Was this canceled, or does registration say that because it was held already? I would like to see the slides other materials if they are available.

    Thanks.
