Social Media Camp WrapUp

Here's a quick wrapup of Social Media Camp from my blog. Please feel free to add your own.

 

NOVEMBER 2009 - Google Wave and FTC vs Bloggers-the Real Story

 

1. Google Wave - What the heck is it and how is it going to change the Social Media World (if at all)?

 

2. FTC Guidelines - Bloggers won't be fined, but how should marketers effectively work with Bloggers to stay out of hot water?

 

Join early adopters Howard Greenstein and Content Nation author John Blossom to talk about their adventures since catching the early early beta of Google Wave to discuss "What does Wave work for?" and "How will it be used in the future?" At Social Media Club, everyone is part of the discussion, so bring your questions and your opinions.

Then, join our special guests including Lorrie Thomas, a marketing educator, writer, strategist,

nationally-recognized web marketing expert to talk about the FTC Guidelines and how they're relevant to you as a marketer, advertiser, or blogger.

 

Thanks again to PR Newswire for hosting us at their 350 Hudson St. space.

SEPTEMBER 2009 - Get Real and Get Satisfaction!

For September, SMC is back at the Roger Smith Hotel (thanks to @RSHotel @BSimi @AdamJWallace)  to welcome Lane Becker of GetSatisfaction.com and learn about how this company turned into the place where consumers get help, and the place where companies listen to their customers.

Real wants to listen and find out how people use video, how easy or hard it is to remix it and re-consume it on their device of choice. They want to know how people wish they could use it, or what they could do with it, regardless of current technology limitations. Come tell them.
