It seems like no one can escape that pesky little Twitter at the moment! When it’s not being talked about by Stephen Fry and Jonathan Ross, or even Chris Moyles on Radio 1, then there is always John Cleese!

KMP’s next event is a Social Media for Beginners Workshop, which takes place on the 29th January at the MDDA in Manchester. The half-day workshop will be hosted by KMP’s Social Media Expert – Paul Fabretti, alongside Content Strategist, Dave Kinsella. Paul will be looking at the role of blogging within social media, using case studies to show how blogging can be used as an effective business tool. He’ll also use a case study to help attendees work through the tools and methodologies involved with creating a social media strategy so that attendees can build their own campaign. Dave will be exploring the world of social media and showing you how easy it is to get started with the different social media tools that are available, including social networks, photo-sharing sites, video and blogs. Already proving to be popular with companies such as The Co-operative, United Utilities and Wales Millennium Centre signed up, there are only a few places left for this complete guide to Social Media. Book now to avoid disappointment.

Following the success of KMP’s Blogging Workshop, inblackandwhite.tv caught up with Craig to bring you an exclusive interview with the man himself! http://www.vimeo.com/2463615 In this video, Craig gives a brief introduction about himself and the work that he does, as well as discussing the purpose of the Blogging Workshops. As this is the second workshop that KMP has hosted, we wanted to find out where Craig’s enthusiasm for blogging stems from and why he sees blogging as such a valuable marketing tool. Craig also discusses the popular social media tool, “twitter” providing his thoughts on the best definition, as well giving his tips on how to find the best people to follow!
