Social Media Cafe Liverpool is back and this time it's audio that gets all the attention and rightly so.   

Static Gallery on Roscoe Lane will once again host SMCliv on Thursday April 19th where they will be offering an evening exploring the growing use of audio within Social Media. Looking at online audio platforms, podcasting and the uses of audio for business development. 
A panel of three experts will present on their areas of specialism in audio and social media, be that marketing, journalism, writing, teaching or music. The forum will then be opened out to the floor for a more general discussion and Q&A session.
The use of audio in social media has grown steadily since the dawn of podcasting and today with platforms like Audioboo and Soundcloud enabling public engagement in projects and products it's still expanding. The panellists this month are Musician and Writer - Dan Lynch, The Podcast Guy and European Podcast Ambassador - Dave Thackeray and Podcaster Graham Holland from Liverpool Acoustic Live. 
Dan Lynch, co-organiser and speaker said
"People should come along to learn more about podcasting and how it can be useful for business, marketing or just for fun. I've been very lucky that making a popular podcast has opened many doors for me over the years. My own story ties heavily into social media and SMC Liverpool makes the perfect setting to tell it."
The presentations are followed by a Panel discussion and Q&A session open to everyone for contributions, with questions being taken from twitter and via the Live Video Stream using the Hastag #SMCLiv.
Social Media Café Liverpool is an evening examining the way that Social Media affects society, discussing its uses and implications. It will promote a responsible and professional use of these digital tools, be that in for personal or business purposes.
