THIS WEEK’s Event: Thursday, April 12th @ 9AM at The Egg and I Restaurant (NW Quadrant of Arapaho and Montfort) in Addison

This week Thursday, April 12th,  we will overview other aspects of using social media in our career transition efforts.  We will have a guest presenter:  Bill Fenson, a long time colleague of mine who is quite knowledgeable on technical matters.  He will speak on “the big THREE” (LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter) and other applications and also give focus to the “digital dirt” we all leave behind with our Internet presence.
