Ottawa, Canada, Nov 16, 2009 – Purple Forge today announced it will be speaking at the Government Web 2.0 and Social Media INFONEX conference at 11:30 am, Nov 17, 2009.

“The majority of people now go online to learn about their local politics and government solutions to gather information in order to make an informed decision,” said John Craig, VP Sales and Marketing at Purple Forge. “And they access this online information through a variety of channels: web sites, social networking, Facebook, Twitter, blogs, and more. And people, especially younger people, are accessing this content using a variety of tools: computers, laptops, and most importantly, mobile phones. Politicians and governments need to better understand how to spread their message farther faster using the latest broadcasting and social networking tools to ensure the widest audience of all ages receives it, can interact with it, and can continue spreading the message to their personal network.”
