Social Media and Me (WorldBridge Partners Meeting 2010)

Social Media presentations are everywhere these days and if I go to YouTube and ask the question "How to use Twitter" I'll find plenty of material to get myself up to speed. The question is: How do I combine all these tools effectively as a Recruiter?
