And I’m not sure about: http://digg.com/philbradley

Why would you want a PLN? Share information Ask/Answer questions Adjunct to training, though not a replacement A broader and  different  perspective
 
Or in other words... 1.8 zettabytes of information
What are the dangers of using social media? If you get involved in social media you  may  do something you’ll later regret
What are the dangers of NOT using social media? You  will  damage your reputation. Worse, you won’t have a reputation at all. You will not be taken seriously. You will not keep up to date. You will be out of the loop. For good.
The traditional approach
How do you start? How do you start?
 
 
 
 
Google+
 
In 3 days...
Growth rate: Google+ to pass 10,000,000 users 13/07/11 350% increase in 6 days 2.2 million joined in 34 hours Reach 20,000,000 by 17/7/11
Twitter
Follow the people the people you follow follow!
WeFollow
Twitter search
Great for conferences!
And then... Start tweeting! Ask questions Answer questions Let people know what you think Find out what others think Refine your contacts – follow more people, unfollow others
Social networks Not ‘social’ ‘PROFESSIONAL’! Have more than one ‘face’; professional and social More informal, but never forget the privacy angle!
Facebook Forget “Friends” Facebook is becoming a search engine Facebook pages are slowly replacing the website in some instances Status updates are like press releases!

Not forgetting search!
Liking and +1’ing
Because... Social is the new search Search will be increasingly based around individuals Web sites/pages are increasingly less important “ Thought leaders” are what are going to increasingly be coming to the fore.
