Career Networking Group, Twitter - Scotch Plains Library

The Scotch Plains Library is hosting Career Networking Group - Twitter.  Doug Baldwin of the Cranbury Public Library shows us the basics of Twitter and tips on how to make the most of this social media tool by discussing “Can You Tweet Your Way to a Job?" 

When you add Twitter to your toolbox, you add another way to network, connect and build your professional brand.

This session will teach you the basics of Twitter, including:
•       Creating a Twitter account
•       Sending and resending tweets
•       Searching within Twitter
•       Using hash-tags to promote your content
•       Using the “follow” feature to build your network
•       Useful tips and tricks to boost your visibility

Mr. Baldwin spearheads technology initiatives for the Cranbury Public Library as their systems administrator.  He speaks about library technology to local and state professionals and teaches individuals and groups how to use social media and computer technology.  Doug’s passions are designing interactive gaming and making the most of mobile technology.
