Web 2.0 Don’ts• Don’t use facebook, orkut or myspace
• Why?
• Student profiles are for their friends not “official”
• Hard to see who the author is or to contact them privately
• Hard to tell what is official and what is started by students
• Often the content is not targeted but a general page

Web 2.0 Don’ts• Try to be clever
• Try to control what people are saying
• Transfer offline to online

Web 2.0 Dos• Identify your audience and speak to them
• Be a “real” person and establish a relationship
• Enlist current students and alumni
• Testimonials go a long way
• Provide tons of information in small bites in many different formats: include video, blogs and discussions
• Don’t forget SMS - mobile is increasingly important
