Hi Craig,
I was one of the students who attended this talk tonight and I’ve just stumbled upon your blog by sheer coincidence whilst researching for an assignment as part of our Digital PR class so thought I would leave a comment. I thought you made some really interesting comments on the increasing need for comprehensive understanding of digital media use and integration with exsisting practice for organisations. Whilst studying on this module it has only become clearer to me that this is something that organisations really need to get to grips with. As you said it’s even crucial to know what people are saying about you and to respond to this as part of damage control. You’re point about Scotland being slow in catching on to social media opportunities was, although funnily put, pretty concerning and was definitely a motivation to try and turn this around in the future.
Thanks very much for coming to speak to us!

Emma, thanks for having me, it was great to meet you guys. For some reason Keynote is crashing like a drunk dodgems driver on me and I can’t get the presentation uploaded this morning but I’ll take another stab at it after 4pm. Also if you search Twitter for #ciprscotland there were some tips and pointers there.

And yes, so far, Gordon Brown’s lawyers haven’t been in touch…
