IMPORTANT NOTE

boot-camp-sq
Attendees should bring a laptop with wireless Internet access capability, be proficient at logging into a non-secure wireless hot-spot, and be comfortable pointing, clicking, dragging and dropping on a Mac or PC. Most demos are conducted on a Mac.
 
Though not mandatory, it is helpful if participants also have administrative privileges to download and install third-party software on the hard drive of their computers. Specific applications vary, but they may include open source, Java or Adobe AIRapplications. It is challenging for participants to effectively monitor, participate and engage constituents online if they are not at liberty to access and utilize the same, popular social media applications used to drive the digital dialogue.

Participants also will need the ability to access the Internet in the absence of their own secure proxy server, should have Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 or higher, Firefox 3 or higher, Flash Player 9 or higher, and a secondary Google Gmail account that can be used to sign up for Web-based services and that will not interfere with their productivity if excessive unsolicited e-mail accumulates at that address.
