This site is a companion to one-day boot camps on working with social media in a professional setting and how to establish professional and personal brands using social tools.

Advanced Social Media and Getting Started with Social Media are taught by me, Robin J. Phillips, web and social media manager for the City of Glendale, Arizona, and sponsored by the Cronkite School of Journalism at Arizona State University. 

This site is full of resources, tools, ideas, blog posts and more. 

BLOGGERS: To the right, you'll see links to blogs that are regularly full of tips about using social media.  

Following good social media and interactive marketing bloggers is a great way to keep on top of the rapidly changing social media tools and tactics.

GOOGLE IT: And below, you'll find some tutorials that help make sense for someone trying to understand more about the value of using social media. 

Posts near the top are aimed at more advanced social media ideas. Earlier posts are there to help beginners. If you have a question about using or tracking the impact of social media, Google it.  I'm sure someone has tackled the subject.  

Enjoy.

Don't forget the basics.
