    @rcsbaker Can you tweet a link to the conference? Would love to check it out! #canvatechevent


    Great to see @delitescere “dogfooding” his preso on Adaptive Architecture. #canvatechevent https://t.co/tdWGkpxNSn

    Suddenly regretting booking in #canvatechevent on Wednesday night followed by #WANbreakfast the next day. I have six hours to sleep. 🙁


    Anyone else I know going to the #WANbreakfast this morning?

    @mobywhale Women’s Agenda Network breakfast at the Tea Rooms. Meeting loads of inspiring women!


    Listening to the amazing @NaomiSimson at the #WANbreakfast. http://t.co/4YKunG69AU


    Chuffed to hear @NaomiSimson insisted on not being “token woman” on Shark Tank, pushed for better gender representation. #WANbreakfast


    RT @MsDovic: There is something very cool about listening to female trailblazers in business talk about their stories #wanbreakfast #like!


    Note to self: look up @pryorlisa’s book “Pin Striped Prison.” Sounds really great. #WANbreakfast http://t.co/oVJg2I0tMp


    It’s rare to find a job that allows you to THINK and BE KIND. @pryorlisa found that in medicine. #WANbreakfast


    RT @angelapriestley: So @pryorlisa has studied law and medicine – and been an award-winning journo in between. Just, as you do #overachieve…


    You start out with lots of passion & energy, but then one day you find yourself in admin filling out forms. @NaomiSimson #qft #WANbreakfast


    RT @julesaly: . @NaomiSimson on being an entrepreneur: risky, you give up a decent salary but “you never know what you don’t know” #WANbrea…


    When mentors are no longer useful, consider getting a business coach – one that asks uncomfortable questions. @alovegrove #WANbreakfast


    “There’s no harm in applying. There’s nothing to lose.” #lifeadvice from @pryorlisa #WANbreakfast


    RT @theworkher: Networking tip: Think “how do you help this person?” Says @alovegrove #WANbreakfast @WomensAgenda


    Women who want to get ahead in careers go back to study, men get more work experience. Study may not be the best option. #WANbreakfast


    Getting the impression that my impulse to get an MBA may not be what I actually need for my career. #WANbreakfast


    . @NaomiSimson talking about why women disappeared from IT. Young women with talents dumb down to avoid looking geeky. 🙁 #WANbreakfast


    RT @LucyPerryCEO: Effort, energy, risk. The trifecta for success as shared by the brainiacs at @WomensAgenda #WANbreakfast @NaomiSimson

    Back at @SydneyGA for #socialmedia expert panel on top trends for 2015. (@ General Assembly in Sydney, NSW) https://t.co/XMz01g289f


    I think #socialmedia might be too general a hashtag, @SydneyGA. There’s the first lesson of the night!


    Should’ve known someone would be meerkatting this event! #socialmedia http://t.co/aLUDjP1lZP


    Facebook wins the #socialmedia battle on the basis of targeting and tracking… or does it? Some argument from the panel on that one!


    Audience member: “Who here was at CeBIT today?” Guy near me: “Oh crap, that was TODAY?!” Ha! #socialmedia


    @gilmae Worst hashtag ever. It’s completely useless for following along the event. *sigh*


    Facebook levelling the field between big companies and SMEs in terms of marketing and advertising. #socialmedia


    Everyone says including visual content is key to getting clicks and engagement. Recommendations: Vine, Canva #socialmedia


    RT @LadiesWhoLeague: “People don’t follow brands on Twitter, they follow people.” #socialmedia @SydneyGA


    Netflix launch in Australia solely targeted local influencers. Very interesting. #socialmedia


    @lifeasdaddy Not me, sadly. (But I already had it! They missed out.)

    Marketers need to adhere to local laws/regulations about disclosing sponsorship and paid links/commentary. #socialmedia
