Third Tuesday with Tris Hussey
If you haven’t checked out the Third Tuesday meetings in Vancouver – you’re really missing out on some great events. As the name suggests, the meetings happen every Third Tuesday and include great speakers on everything from new media marketing strategies to how to run a virtual office.
Next week’s meeting is going to feature our very own social media conscierge – Tris Hussy.
Tris will be asking the question: “Do you get the message?” He’ll be exploring the idea that at any given moment we can use a myriad different ways to get a message out, but which ones work best and when? Also, have our expectations of communications kept up with our technologies?
He’ll be giving tips on how to choose the best tool to get your particular message out – should you use Twitter? Create a Facebook group? Create a microsite? Or all of the above. Tune in to find out.
The meeting takes place April 21st at Republic (958 Granville St) at 7pm

Looking forward to Tris' talk! Thanks guys for promoting this!
You're very welcome. Hmm, better get this talk focused in my head, eh?
I'll be liveblogging, since I suppose, well, it'd be hard for Tris to liveblog himself! Also, I'm always a big promoter and supporter of Third Tuesday so I'm happy to lend my liveblogging services
