All Grades But Final Project Now Up

If you have questions, let me know. If you did not receive an "A"/ "95"  it probably means it was either late or you did not follow the instructions. If you did an assignment and I missed it, which is possible, send me a link. 

Extra credit has been recorded but our system only lets me add that in at the very end. 

Tweet Up Next Wednesday!

Hi all,

Join us for a celebration of the end of the semester with a tweet-up at Young Avenue Deli next Wednesday, May 9 at 8pm. We will be joining Dr. Kelley's class there. Hope you can make it.

Cheers,
CB

Don't Forget What Is Due

Hi all,

Don't forget to turn in a memo to me tomorrow about your final project. If you don't have the handout any more and don't know what goes in the memo, remember it is here: http://umemphissocialmedia.posterous.com/class-45

Thanks,

CB

Grades Up

Grades Up:

1. Social photography assignment: You were to take photos and put them up on Flickr, Pinterest and Instagram, and tell me what you learned/observed
2. You were to try out Foursquare or another location-based social media service for a week and post a comment about your experiences here:  http://umemphissocialmedia.posterous.com/trying-out-foursquare-et-al-location-based-so 
3. Mapping assignment (see handout)

If you DID these and I missed them, just send me a link. If you did not, it it too late. If you did not receive full credit, you turned it in late or did not follow all of the directions. 

Cheers,
CB 

Working social media for Memphis in May festival

Hi all,

Tonya said she misplaced the list of you that were interested being part of the social media team at the festival, so if you are still interested in that, please send me a note no later than Monday and I will compile a list and send it to her. Thanks.

Grades Up: Blog Buddy Feedback and Blog Interview

Hi all,

You were to cc me on an email giving feedback to your blog buddy. You were also assigned to do an interview with somebody who might potentially be interested in your blog, and post it on your blog. If I missed it, just please forward me the email or send me the link. Thanks. 

Class 4/24

Just realized I forgot to send out our post-class email!

I hope all of you stay in touch via Twitter or the other social networks. 

Obviously there are no new assignments, but please be sure you are following all of the instructions for your final project. Remember, your final memo should include links to everything you did as well as explaining what you did and why and analyzing how you think it went. I will be sending feedback on your project ideas later today. I know many of you are making good progress already. 

Stay in tune with your email over the next week so that if I missed an assignment of yours that you did, you can send it to me. Final grades have to be turned in the morning of May 7, so after that it will be too late. 

Check out my blog!


I've been working really hard trying to find a blog topic that really fits me and is something that I will keep up with. I have finally found it and it has been updated a couple times. Please check it out and let me know what you think! I want feedback from you guys :)

Grades Up: Google+

All you had to do was create a pretty basic account. And most of you did! Woot. If you did not, it is definitely now too late. 

Don't forget to at least keep your very basic profile there updated even if you aren't a heavy user...it REALLY shows up high and prominent in a Google search. Which, as we all know, employers WILL do. 

Also...no class Thursday 4/19

Work on those final projects!!!!

If you want to follow the conference I'll be at in Austin, International Symposium for Online Journalism, see hashtag #ISOJ and http://online.journalism.utexas.edu/
