Sree Sreenivasan
AAJA Seattle is teaming up with the University of Washington Communication Leadership program, the Seattle Times and the SPJ Western Washington to host a Social Media One-Night Stand with Sree Sreenivasan, Columbia University’s chief digital officer and CNET News blogger.
The event will be held March 18 at 6 p.m. at The Seattle Times. Tickets are $10. Get them before they’re gone!
We’re excited to help bring this event to Seattle.
Topics Sreenivasan will be discussing include:
- How to deepen your connection with your audience via social media
- New tools you must absolutely know and use
- How to build your personal brand
- How to find, on deadline, specific types of people you need for work
- The best ways to increase your followers, fans, and connections
- How to get the “right” followers, fans, and connections
- Metrics: why you need to understand them and how you can do just that
- Sustainable social media — how to keep from drowning in information and make time to participate efficiently
Sreenivasan has given version of this talk to CNN, NBC, ABC, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Boston Globe, Washington Post, NPR, Mediabistro and others.
He is one of AdAge’s 25 media people to follow on Twitter and one of Poynter’s 35 most influential people in social media. For more on Sreenivasan, click here.

Perhaps some of you remember AAJA Seattle’s Dim Sum Saturday… and it’s back!
Meet your fellow AAJA members for casual chat and a great time over dim sum. Friends, co-workers, significant others and kids more than welcome.
Let’s meet at 10:30 a.m. Jan. 26, at New Hong Kong Restaurant (it used to be known as New Kowloon), 900 South Jackson Street, Seattle, WA 98104 in the International District. It is located on the second floor of the Pacific Rim Center, which has a free parking garage. We’ll all split the check. Dim sum typically runs about $10-$15 per person.
Please RSVP so we can keep a rough headcount and know how big of a table to reserve. Leave a message in the comments, or RSVP via the AAJA Seattle group’s Facebook event: http://www.facebook.com/events/393751124050857/
