Do your eyes Flickr and your head Twitter when you hear the words Facebook and Second Life? 

Our keynote guest speaker, Biray Alsac from the USA, is going to explain using practical case studies, how we can utilise social networking tools like these along with Bebo and My Space, to both promote, support and engage individuals in a wider age range than might be imagined,
to get active and participate in your activity projects.

• The anonymity available behind some social networks often encourages more wary or shy individuals to engage – this presentation will show how you can make use of this to reach hard-to-reach groups.
• In 2006, 70% of 16-24 years olds used social networking sites – this percentage has now increased – if this is one of your target audiences, this presentation will be invaluable to you.
• If nothing else, by the end of this session, you’ll at least know what Facebook, Second Life and social networks as a whole are all about and have a new appreciation of how they could be used.
• And finally we promise to keep it easy to understand and jargon-free!
