Changing The Shape Of Conferences

The influence of new media is changing the shape of conferences. The National Children and Adult Services Conference was held over 3 days in October. The twitter hash tag of #ncasc was used and over the 3 days of the conference 115,000 tweets were sent reporting on and commenting on the conference.

Following from the conference a blog was set up Connecting Social Care and Social Media blog http://bit.ly/pRKAtO with a hashtag #cscsm to follow. One of the early posts is called ‘5 reasons why social workers should use social media. http://bit.ly/qe9G2K
