Sree Sreenivasan, my dean of student affairs and professor of digital media at the Columbia School of Journalism, organized some great guests for a webcast today on how journalists can use Facebook. In fact, the Journalism School is teaching how to use Facebook as a tool for journalists, among other social media. The panel included:

Arik Hesseldahl, senior technology writer at Businessweek.
Brandee Barker, director of communications at Facebook (Product/Platform)
Barry Schnitt, director of communications at Facebook (Privacy/Policy)
Ben Parr, the now co-editor at Mashable.com
