Social media focus at InternetNZ open evening

InternetNZ is organising an "open evening". This is to provide a platform for InternetNZ members to share their knowledge and thoughts with the wider community. The open evening will provide InternetNZ members an opportunity to get to know one another better and to expose non-members to InternetNZ’s work (hopefully some of them will like it enough to join us!).

The first open evening will be in Auckland. If it works well, we will consider holding an open evening in Wellington later this year.

InternetNZ member and web marketing expert Sandra Newton (www.essentee.co.nz twitter: http://twitter.com/EssenteeWeb) will present on social media in the New Zealand context, examining the new challenges and opportunities that it presents for individuals and organisations.

This will be followed by Us Now, a one-hour documentary film about the power of mass collaboration, the government and the Internet. This film is very thought-provoking and an excellent conversation starter.

Drinks, nibbles and an opportunity for face-to-face networking will conclude the evening.

Date: Wednesday 30 June 2010
Time: 6.00pm – 8.30pm
Venue: Montecristo Room, Toto Restaurant, 53 Nelson Street, Auckland Central
