 Where the Social Rubber Meets the Road: Real-Life Examples of Organizations and Info Pros Using Social Networking Tools

Social networking tools like Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and others can be fun to use, but how are organizations and information professionals actually using them to share and find information effectively?

This jam-packed presentation will look at the real-life practical applications of social networking tools, both inside and outside of the organization. You'll hear about several recent business examples, issues around security, find out more about how Sun Microsystems is using these tools, and learn about the positives and negatives of using these tools for research and competitive information from an experienced info pro.
