Asha Phillips of Storyful
The very first AAJA meet-up in Bangkok is set for Thursday, January 24 at the AP offices. Introducing Storyful: an organization that helps newsrooms find content on social media websites. They partner with ABC News, Reuters and the New York Times, and social platforms such as YouTube.
Storyful’s Asia Pacific Bureau Chief, Asha Phillips, who is also an AAJA-Asia member in Hong Kong, will be flying in to teach us how to utilize this tool for our stories.
We’re gathering foreign and local media based in Bangkok to join us. We’re also hoping to get Asiaworks’ Craig Knowles to present his ideas on the use of social media and blogging specifically for the Southeast Asia region.
Suggested donation of 300THB to go to AAJA, a non-profit group.
