Social Media 101 2.0

Posted on 17. Nov, 2008 by Aaron Marshall in Social Media

RSVP on Facebook if you plan to attend.

I have been asked to speak to seminary students from the SBTS about social media. I will be live streaming the presentation using USTREAM. Follow me on Twitter if you would like a reminder.

Here is what I will be covering:

How to Use Social Media for Ministry WITHOUT Overloading, Burning Time, and Losing Your Religion

Social Media is said to be the biggest change in communications in the last 50 years. These social technologies are revolutionizing the way people are conversing, collaborating and connecting. If your goal is to reach people and bring glory to God than this is something you cannot ignore.

What you will learn:

DIY Mass Communication: Increase Your Reach with Social Media
Simple and Practical Tools for Getting Started
Transformed and Transparent : The Significance of a Facebook Profile
Keeping it Pure: How to Avoid and Block Distasteful Advertisements
Avoid Info-Overload: How to Stay Up To Date without Staying Up All Night
Status Updates: The Power of “What are you doing right now?”
Build Authentic Relationships Online (Assuming you can do this offline)

Let me know in the comments that you will be watching and I will try and mention you in the presentation. Especially if you are in another country.

Dude, you know I’ll be viewing. Of course, “Louisville” isn’t exactly an exotic locale, but I’ll give it some link love.

Aaron, I will be watching from Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary (GGBTS) in California.
I really enjoyed you talk to the faculty at SBTS. I wish the faculty at GGBTS would have you come and speak to them.

I’m looking forward to seeing your presentation. Will the presentation also be saved for later viewing?

It will be recorded and re-posted here, but I will be giving a shout out to those folks watching from afar

Thank you for your comments.

Aaron, I love the fact that you’re streaming a presentation. I can’t watch the full thing right now because work is calling, but I’d love to be able to download it and watch it while I’m traveling next week. I look forward to the recording being posted soon!

Thanks for all you do! It really does make a difference when you are dealing with people. And I’ve benefited so much from your passion.

And one more thing… I watched the first 20 minutes live… it was a beautiful thing… gotta love technology.

Where are the links. Particularly interested to find details of the Camera technology and where I can get it! Was it ‘i5′ ?
