DFA Night School is back to help you master the emerging art of Twitter. This new medium is rising faster than any other social networking platform, but is it destined to be overloaded with celebrity gossip and trivia or will it become a revolutionary tool for social change? We will explore it's strengths and limitations as we work to separate the hype from Reality on using Twitter to organizing online.

Our guest trainers will be Adam Green from the PCCC (@adamgreenonline) and Jen Nedeau (@humanfolly) from Air America. This training will take place live from the Netroots Nation convention in Pittsburgh. You can be part of this great event for free right from your own home.

Our free hour long training will first focus on how to establish a presence on Twitter and build a following. Then we’ll then talk about how you can message and mobilize your network in an effective way.
