Networking made simple
June 23, 2010 in News Roundup, Uncategorized
Brian Kelly, from UKOLN at University of Bath, is planning on using geo-location services to provide an easy way for people to meet and network in an event in July.
Taking place at the University of Sheffield, Institutional Web Management Workshop 2010 (IWMW) will have a strong online presence using various Web 2.0 tools to get the best features from each.
This year, geo-location services will add to an official event blog and a Twitter hashtag.
“The intention is to geo-locate the main venues as well as places for social activities on Gowalla”, Brian says.
Facebook and Twitter have allowed people to share details of their private lives on a completely different level to what we knew before.
