Twitter, ethics and our very own Sylwia

Last night Sylwia Presley, a 1000head charged with keeping us all in line ethically (you should see some of the creative team, this is no easy task), had the opportunity to talk about Twitter and the associated ethical issues during Oxford Geek Night 10. With her presentation well received reactions began to feed through, from where else, but Twitter of course. IT professionals of Oxford were, if @aitkin is anything to go by, genuinely interested in the Twitter platform and the morals behind the use of micro-blogging services. @beingwicked found it enjoyable and interesting, whereas @tomd reflected on his own Twitter presence. As follow up @oniryx links to examples of discussion on doing the right thing the right way in Twitter in practice, relating to competitions and brand promotion.

Syl’s entire presentation is available on SlideShare and I heartily recommend it, as does, @alpower who found it useful already.

Soon going live on the main event site will be video recordings of the evening, so keep your eyes peeled for that and we’ll add some photos into this post shortly…

Finally it just remains to say a big thank you from Sylwia and 1000heads to the organisers for letting us get involved!
