Open Source and Building Online Communities using Social Media and Communications - Tips, Tricks, and Being Effective - Kim McMahon, McMahon Consulting (Beginner Skill Level)

Communicating in open source is about sharing information, engaging, and building community. How to reach our audience is something we all think about! In this interactive and audience participation talk, Kim will talk about social media techniques as well as the specific activities you can do to build community and have conversations. She will cover content types, approaches for engagement, and tips for collaborating, engaging, and building community. There will be a section on metrics and what to watch to get a feel for how you are doing. There will also be time for audience engagement in an interactive conversation on best practices we all use in our communications activities.
