Off to Geneva; Blogging & RSS Workshops

I have been invited by the Association of International Librarians and Information Specialists (AILIS) in Geneva to give 2 full day workshops - one day in English the other in French - on blogging and RSS. I am leaving tomorrow evening till Friday.

Looking forward to these workshops... Every time I learn a lot from the "trainees" and I find it interesting to get feedback about the use and applications of new media from very different angles.

We'll have a full day program covering the "new communications model", setting up a basic blog, creating RSS feeds for the blog but also from online information that doesn't have a feed, we'll be mixing feeds, monitoring feeds, we will create a "professional blog" and much more. Very much "hands on" and applied were possible to their day to day job and profession.

AILIS worked together with the University of Geneva to organize this so we'll have all the infrastructure we need. Will try to blog and send in some pictures from Geneva. (Picture by Taro Taylor).
