MySpace, FaceBook, YouTube, blogs and other communication and social sharing systems have literally taken over the Web activities of your student audience. How does your current website measure up to their expectations? Your Web strategy, and your website, must evolve with the times or your institution’s marketing, branding and recruiting capability—and even your own job—may become marginalized. This is your wake-up call; it’s time to embrace the change! Come learn about some new, creative and cost-effective tools and solutions that can be quickly and easily implemented—and that will put you and your higher education website into the competitive driver's seat.
