Excel Basics
Looking for something to do tonight?
Tonight, July 6, BDNT is hosting "A Night of Participation".
It’s a simple way to get major karma points, so you can slack off for the rest of the summer.
The nights agenda:
We are lining up multiple NonProfits who will present New Tech style, but with a twist. Once all of the groups are finished on the podium, 2 minutes each instead of 5, then it's time to start generating those karma points by solving the NonProfits tech issues.
What to bring:
Your laptops, power chords and favorite IDE. New Tech will provide the beer, pizza and late night snacks.
Events coming up this week!

Notes and Links: Social Media Planning and Monitoring
Thanks to everyone who attended our July 7th meetup, "Social Media Planning and Monitoring". We had a full house. Overfull, really. Most everyone was using social media with their organizations and clients, and a few veterans have been using it for a year or more. Some were already doing a bit of monitoring and shared their tools and thoughts, and we had a helpful presentation on social media planning by the Denver DataMan, Steve Kessler.
