I make presentations about how social media practices can and should be put to use to solve a range of business, civic and environmental problems. Here are two themes I’m currently prepared to speak on:

• Extreme Community – Version 3.0 – merging localized community with virtual community to meet emerging challenges
• Learning to Learn Through the Web – how to custom tailor an internal learning agenda and program using social tools and techniques
