Who could have ever predicted the way technology would change the public relations industry? I am amazed every day at the new developments that make communicating with our key audiences easier and more effective. Blogs, wikis, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and the like continue to revolutionize the communication industry.
This is why it is very important to be familiar with current and emerging technology trends. Our next event, OkieSMart, which is being co-hosted by the Tulsa Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America, the Tulsa Chapter of the International Association of Business Communicators and the Tulsa Press Club, will teach us about new resources that can benefit our organizations and clients.
OkieSMart is an afternoon seminar featuring social media experts who discuss today's trending technology. Last year's first OkieSMart event featured HARO Founder Peter Shankman, and this year's seminar promises to be just as engaging.
OkieSMart 2010 will take place at the SpiritBank Event Center on Aug. 26 from 1 to 5 p.m. Speakers Rick Burnes, inbound marketing manager at HubSpot, and Steve Crescenzo, principal at Crescenzo Communications, will share insight on how to leverage social media, and a reception at Savastano's Pizzeria will follow for event attendees.

You may be so excited about your new-found knowledge after this conference that you, like Dwight Schrute, may want a Second Life. I look forward to seeing everyone at OkieSMart!
