Hi All,

On behalf of the entire Sydney Data Miners members, I am please to announce and would like to welcome our new sponsor for 2011, IBM SPSS Predictive Analytics software, part of the IBM Business Analytics portfolio.

I look forward to working with their team in delivering top quality presentations for our members throughout 2011.

I am also please to announce our first event for 2011, being held on Monday 24 January at the City Hotel at 5:45PM. With some much discussion on social media data and what to do with it, I thought this topic would be a great one to kick off the year.

Please forward this email to your industry colleagues and have them sign up for FREE at www.meetup.com/datarati

As usual, if you have any speaker recommendations, or ideas on how we can improve our group, please don't hesitate to reach out to me directly on my contact details below.

TOPIC: Your market is talking. Listen! Using analytics on Twitter feeds.

PRESENTATION OUTLINE: Twitter gives us access to what the market is doing, thinking and saying right now. This session will showcase the power of analytics to access, analyse and report on Twitter feeds.
