On Monday April 4th, Quimper Grange hosts a program by Internet expert, Al Bergstein who will talk about choosing and using Social Media. Bergstein will explain how Facebook, Twitter and blogging work, as well as how to select each based on their strengths and weaknesses. According to Bergstein, “the change of having social networks has been profound, and many people are still leery of using tools like Facebook and blogs. However, there are a lot of useful ways to manage your use of Facebook and blogs, to better interact with friends, business partners, and other associates.” The format for the evening will encourage questions and discussion.
Al Bergstein, with 25 years in the computer industry, has been working on the Internet professionally long before web browsing even existed. He was operations manager for Expedia, helping with its launch, was deeply involved in a number of nonprofit site expansions, such as People for Puget Sound. He currently runs the Olympic Peninsula Environmental News (www.olyopen.net), produces video and does occasional consulting
The program starts at 7:30 pm and is preceded by a potluck dessert/fingerfood social half-hour from 7pm to 7:30pm. Suggested donation: $5-$10. For further information contact: Charlotte Goldman at 385-3455.
