Practising what we preach: feedback from the first social media awareness session with Orbit East

In our social reporter training we repeat mantra like:  if some one says something interesting or useful then grab your camera and ask them to say it again – then stick it on the web.

Yesterday I spent a really enjoyable morning with a group of Orbit East residents.  I was showing them the many ways in which social media is compatible with their  role to try and constantly improve social housing.   We also had time to help set up a couple of simple posterous blogs:

http://orbiteastresidents.posterous.com/ – for the region wide residents panel

and

http://blenheimresidents.posterous.com/  for an estate in Carbrooke in Norfolk.

Anyway Sue and Nigel left saying really lovely things about the morning and what they had learnt – so remembering our mantra to our clients and grabbed the camera and recorded the feedback above.
