Third Tuesday - SEPT 17: Shel Israel September 17, 2009

THURSDAY, September 17th at 6pm in Vancouver

Shel Israel is launching his new book, Twitterville, in Canada at Third Tuesday meetups in Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver.

Three years ago, Shel co-authored Naked Conversations with Robert Scoble. Naked Conversations was a must-read book in 2006. It captured the zeitgeist of the blogosphere.

Now Shel Israel is back with Twitterville, his look at Twitter and how it is being used by people and organizations to connect, play, share, create community, organize… You name it and we’re finding a way to do it on Twitter.

Shel was the very first speaker at the inaugural Third Tuesday in 2006. So, launching Twitterville at Third Tuesday is like Shel coming home.

This event shouldn't be missed! Shel will spark your imagination, and give you ideas about how you can use Twitter and other social media in your business and life.

A word about admission

We're asking attendees to pay a $10 (early bird until Sept 14) admission fee to reserve a space at this month's Third Tuesday to cover the venue cost.

Thank you to our sponsors
We’re able to bring Shel to cities across Canada thanks to the support of our Third Tuesday sponsors:

* CNW Group, our founding sponsor;
* Fairmont Hotels and Resorts, who are providing accommodation for Shel;
* Molson Canada, whose use of social media Shel has profiled in Twitterville;
* Rogers Communications, whose network provides us with both landline and mobile Internet access; and
* Radian6, who provide us with the tools we need to monitor and measure social media.

Thanks to each of these sponsors, Shel’s Canadian book launch will be just the first of several exciting initiatives we’re planning for the coming year.

SEE YOU THERE!
