General Session Program: Social Media – Alex Weeks

Thursday, May 16th, 7:00 p.m.

alex weeksThis month’s presentation on May 16th will be given by Alex Weeks, who will be speaking on Social Media.  Social media technologies take on many different forms including magazines, Internet forums, weblogs, social blogs, micro blogging, wikis, social networks, podcasts, photographs or pictures, video, rating and social bookmarking. Technologies include: blogs, picture-sharing, vlogs, wall-postings, email, instant messaging, music-sharing, crowdsourcing and voice over IP, to name a few. Many of these services can be integrated via social network aggregation platforms. Alex is a Club member and a teenager, who uses Social Media every day and will be speaking on how Social Media is being used to communicate and connect with friends and family.

Join us at 7:00 pm on Thursday May 16th for this informative and entertaining presentation. Visitors are always welcome and there is never a charge to attend this meeting. The Computer Club of Oklahoma City has two door prizes to give to its members, and two for visitors. This month the prize for the first visitor will be a one-year membership to the Computer Club of Oklahoma City; the second visitor’s prize will be a $20 gift card from Best Buy. For the members’ drawings, we have a two $40 gift cards. Please join us for this informative presentation and stay for the drawing for these prizes. Remember that if you bring guests, you may complete an extra prize drawing slip for each guest over the age of 18 you bring who has not attended the General Meeting in the last three months. However, if you win a prize, you are only allowed to win one prize an evening and if your name is drawn again, it will be put aside and another name drawn.

THE FOLLOWING IS VERY IMPORTANT: In fairness to all, no one will be allowed to register for the drawing after 7:00pm. You MUST have a current Computer Club of Oklahoma City badge with you to enter the members' prize drawing. If you forget your badge, you have lost it, or it has expired, you will not be eligible to fill out a prize drawing slip. Although you can certainly place your membership with the Club the night of the meeting, you will not be eligible for the members’ drawing until the following month. This is a firm rule for all meetings, so members, please be sure you bring your badge with you each month. You are welcome to stay for the presentation without your badge, but you will not be allowed to participate in the drawing, no matter how long you've been a member of the Club.

The Computer Club of OKC offers many different Study Groups. They are groups of 10-50 people who meet monthly to learn about a particular subject. The format is part presentation and part facilitated discussion. A STUDY GROUP, once called a Special Interest Group, is an informal group within ccOKC whose participants share a common interest.

As such, a STUDY GROUP is the place to ASK QUESTIONS, LEARN and GET HELP about the subject of that study group through the questions asked by all and the demonstrations by the Study Group leader.  All Study Groups are FREE and ALL ARE INVITED!
