    Hopefully sitting right next to me at Twitch!

    Twitch! Public Relations in the Age of Social Media

    Date: Thursday, January 14, 2010
    Time: 6:30 – 8:00 PM
    Location: Busboys and Poets, 2021 14th St NW, Washington, DC 20009

    Twitch! will feature a panel of Washington, DC, journalists including Jennifer Nycz-Conner, Editor for Washington Business Journal, Jamila Bey, Producer at National Public Radio, McLean Robbins, Health Beauty and Lifestyles Features Writer for Washingtonian and DC Modern Luxury Magazines, Lindsey Mastis, News Now Digital Correspondent for WUSA9 and Ryan Grim, Senior Congressional Correspondent for the Huffington Post and former Staff Reporter with Politico.

    Now, (like you) I’ve gone to my fair share of tweetups, meetups and panels, but few offer the opportunity to wind down after work, network and hear from a group of local journalists who are not only familiar with social media but also quite clever when it comes down to using the channels on a day to day basis.

    A few things to keep in mind:

    1. The cost to attend is $20.

    2. IT IS MORE THAN WORTH IT!

    3. There’s no on-site registration. You must register here: http://twitch.eventbrite.com/

    4. Only a few seats left! Don’t miss out!
