We hope you join us. Thursday - Oct 1st - 7pm - New media and technology 101: An overview of recent changes and a look into the future.

Tuesday Oct 13th - 7pm - The power of social networks: How sites like Facebook, LinkedIn and Ning are changing the world Tuesday Oct 20th - 7pm - The web has moved on, but have your search skills?
