Good morning to you all. As many of you know, I hosted a speaker workshop on Sunday along with Peter called, “Learn To Use Blogs, Twitter and RSS Feeds To Make You A Power Investor” . I’m happy to say the presentation was packed. Standing room only. What was it about? Demonstrating how these social media tools can supercharge your market knowledge. It was the initial step in teaching investors how how to use social media to cut through clutter, get the information you need directly to you and connect with the smartest people on the planet.
I gave a 15-minute presentation and then conducted a Q&A with Peter about his experience with this blog and Web 2.0 in general. The audience also jumped in with about 10 great questions before we ran out of time. As an old-school stalwart who now evangelizes the power of Web 2.0, I found Peter’s comments had a great impact because 95% of the audience have yet to adapt Web 2.0 – but they were convinced by the time we were done.
To this end, I want to thank everyone that attended and participated in the presentation.
SERIES OF WEBCASTS
It was so well received (even Peter was blown away) that I am going to create a webcast out of the presentation and re-broadcast it here, along with a series of short videos about how to use iGoogle, Twitter, Blogs and RSS Feeds. If you don’t know what that means, don’t worry, you will and you will love it.
I am off to a second conference on the west coast, so look for the series to begin next week.
That’s it for now. Catch you later.
Regards,
George

I was so hoping something like that would happen. Will be waiting, it sounds great.
As I mentioned on George’s blog, I attended the workshop and it was the best I attended. It provided great ideas for obtaining important and timely investment information via twitter and other web 2.0 applications. I am looking forward to the videos. BTW, I was the person who asked if there were any alerts with twitter etc. to let a person know when they receive new messages and updates.
