This looks promising. I wish I could make it--I'm signed up for other duties.

Don't miss this joint program from the Atlanta Press Club,
the American Society of Journalists & Authors SE chapter (asja.org),
sponsored and held at the Georgian Terrace hotel! Hope to see you
there!

Using Technology to Tell the Story

These days, it is virtually impossible to ignore sites like Facebook,
MySpace, LinkedIn and YouTube. Though many see them as “time-wasters”
and mindless destinations for fun and socializing, they can also be
valuable tools for journalists.

Join the Atlanta Press Club and the Southeast chapter of the American
Society of Journalists and Authors (ASJA) for a compelling panel
discussion, Using Techology to Get the Story,on Thursday, June 4 at
The Georgian Terrace. Panelists will share their insights on using
social networking sites for reporting, non-traditional ways to use
technology to promote your work, and how blogging adds extra
dimensions to stories.
Also enjoy:
• free hors d'oeuvres,
• free parking at the Georgian Terrace Hotel, and
• a cash bar...
