The cell phone is a radio station, a multimedia TV studio and a printing press. Mark Trahant will show how this device can be used to tell stories from blogs to live videos — and then how to reach an audience anywhere in the world. This session will look at the tools that can be used to make a professional quality presentation.
Everyone is welcome.
