NPR and Social Media Presentation

This came from another group here at Vanderbilt Uuniversity ("Spiders"). Think those interested in the topic will enjoy the presentation (it's an online web presentation what are being called Web 2.0 social media issues).

Hi Spiders,

I wanted to share this presentation I saw at a conference last month in Baltimore by Andy Carvin, who is heading up NPR's social media efforts. Good general discussion and some nice historical references as well.

Web 2.0 has come up as a potential meeting topic for Spiders - please send 2.0 topics / ideas that you are particularly interested or have unique experience with and I will line up some speakers (maybe you!)

Thanks,
