I’m barely back from my trip to Austria [5] for CeDEM [6] and my Twitter research methods seminar at the University of Vienna, as well as my public talk [7] for Quintessenz [8] and the Internet Research Group [9] at the University – but today I also presented a brief talk on using social media in corporate communication at the Cooperative Research Centres Association conference [10] here in Brisbane. CRCs are one key form of government-supported research centre in Australia – and the CRCA is the peak body coordinating and representing their activities.

Here are my slides – audio also online already:

All of this builds on our social media reports for the Smart Services CRC [14], both of which are available on this site:
