It can be tough to figure out what to do with all the social media resources being used in conjunction with events. Fortunately, there's a new study that may help cut through the clutter. Called “The State of Social Technologies Adoption Survey,” it's an in-depth look at how 280 associations are using social technology. Produced by Jeffrey de Cagna of Principled Innovation, with the financial support of Omnipress, the report is offered at a special discount of $99 until March 1.
