18 September 2009; Hamden, Connecticut:

The Connecticut chapter of the Society for Technical Communication (STC) invited Rich Maggiani to be their featured speaker at their fall kick-off event. Rich presented his “Social Media Is Reshaping Communication” session (slides).

Due to requests from some attendees, Rich put greater emphasis on setting up and implementing a blog, and discussed how best to promote it and engage an audience. The session also explored social media privacy issues. A lively discussion followed.
