It is great to see the topic of social media and CRE on the Asia Summit agenda for the first time. I have been preparing for the session What’s Your Social Net Worth? CRE in the Attention Age and I have learnt a lot about the potential that social media could have for our industry.
Social media is still new for many of us, so here are a few tips on ways that you can use social media to follow and influence the Summit discussion – even if you can’t attend the Summit yourself.
- Follow what people are saying in real time on Twitter. Search for #CoreNet -- this is a “hashtag” or a special code used in Twitter to make all postings about a topic appear in searches.
- Find and follow bloggers writing from CoreNet – like this blog or the CoreNet NetWORK blog – sign up for email alerts or contribute your comments and questions.
- Create your own Twitter account and share your thoughts– remember to include #CoreNet so that people can find your posts!
- Search YouTube for video updates live from the Summit or podcasts on related topics.
- Visit the Social Networking Point next to Summit Registration and find out how you can join the conversation.
- Keep track of the action around the Summit; find out which sessions are most interesting, controversial or fun.
How are you using social media to seek out and connect with your peers on-site or online? Let us know by contributing a “comment” below. I look forward to hearing from you!
