Calling all creative types across Cambridgeshire. Join CamCreative on Thursday NOVEMBER 26th at the Cambridge Arts Picturehouse. 7.00pm onwards!
Thursday November 26th. Social Media and monitoring – what does it mean to you and your business?
We’ve all heard about Twitter, Facebook and the many other social spaces on the Internet. People are talking and discussing about products, services and brands through these social sites but how are you engaging with this new dynamic?
Both small and large size companies are finding ways to use these social platforms to listen to conversations, engage and respond.
Eric Swain from Limenoodle, a social Media consultant, will be giving CamCreative an overview of what’s happening out in cyberspace and hints and tips to help you understand and tackle this area.
Well done to Scott and Dill for jointly winning the CamCreative photography competition in November!
Sarah Lightman came along on the 27th discuss Women in Comics as part of the Cambridge festival of ideas.

Introducing THANKUBANK.org & Part of the Solution (the movie)
Two exciting “social profit” projects have recently been launched in Cambridge. Mark Desvaux will tell us more about thankubank.org and Part of the Solution- the movie.
THANKUBANK.org – In the midst of economic collapse and financial fury, a new kind of bank for a new generation has quietly launched after two years of planning and development. Unlike any other bank, this one issues a free currency called the THANKU. You can’t buy anything with it, only give it away. The THANKU is the international currency of gratitude, and hope to revolutionise people’s lives around the world. So what is the THANKU, how does it work and how might it cheers us all up? How could it contribute to help the environmental problems in the world as well as helping make the world a better, more balanced place? Find out more at the Cam Creative talk.
PART OF THE SOLUTION (the Movie) – Have you ever watch a documentary about the impending end of the earth and come away completely depressed and overwhelmed? Age of Stupid, Inconvenient Truth, anyone? A group of filmmakers in Cambridge and London are currently producing a new documentary feature film call Part of the Solution, focusing on where hope lies for the future. With some amazing interviews already completed, find out how you can get involved. Watch the trailer and visit the web site at: http://www.4000saturdays.com/movie
Next CamCreative is Thursday May 28th. Speaker TBC!
Thanks to Mark for a great presentation and to all of you who turned up! I actually got to relax a bit for the first time since I began CamCreative!
