I've been travelling this week and am only now getting caught up on everything. I'm delighted to find both your comments and apologise profusely for not being in touch sooner. I've passed your comments on to the committee and someone will be in touch shortly. Alternatively, you can also fill out the form on our contact page: http://www.witwa.org.au/contact/ or phone our secretary, Sheryl Frame. Her details are on the contact page, too. We're so glad to hear your enthusiastic response!

Who do I talk to if I get a response to get the program going in Bunbury? We have a local group called SWWIC (South West women in Computing) who would like to be involved.

Could I please have some further information emailed to me with regard to the Sponsorship Programmes. We work with many of the mining clients here in Perth and would like to use our position to influence where we can. Thank you.

Most of the information being collected about us is being used for advertising and marketing data. Still, it's good to know how and where the information is collected and how it flows through the networks. Personally, I'd rather know what's going on than trust the social networking sites to manage it for me. Thanks for stopping by!

I went straight home and changed all my settings and removed references to my birthday. Scary stuff, but a good reminder on how the 'connected' world has exacerbated our human foibles and is counting on that to make a buck.

It was great to have so many social media users in the talk. I think everyone's personal experiences and observations lent a lot of depth to the morning. -SM Sun, 29 May 2011 19:57:30 +1000 Sarah Mitchell http://www.witwa.org.au/blog-and-other-media/our-blog/social-media-and-privacy/#PageComment_32 http://www.witwa.org.au/blog-and-other-media/our-blog/social-media-and-privacy/#PageComment_31 Thanks for a fantastic, informative talk and for making these slides available.
