Net2 Social Media Surgery Q&A with Amanda and Eli This February #Net2 is inviting our organizers to host Social Media Surgeries. Want to know more? We're holding a couple quick Q&A G+ hangouts with experienced surgery planners from the #Net2 community. Social media surgeries are informal drop-in sessions where anyone from the voluntary and community sector can come and pick the brains of our 'surgeons' (helpful volunteers who understand the world of Twitter, Facebook and the rest).
