How about adding a topic on monitoring conversations in social media?

I'd like to see this group up and running as well. I'm a team member for developing social network marketing for a Fortune 500 company, and have been active in the past with various projects forboth my local and district Ad Fed. Hope to hear something soon.

If anyone is available for Wednesday's chapter call please feel free to join in. We've had several email threads over the past couple of months to try and coordinate the group but I think it would be easier if we took a few minutes to discuss the next steps in getting the chapter together formally. I've also posted this on the Facebook wall if you want to add a comment there.

Ideas and suggestions have been added to the ideas page. We're also working on a blog to cover the meeting minutes so everyone has a chance to participate. More to follow and we're getting closer to a launch date for the chapter.

Looking forward to the launch. Unfortunately, Wed nights are hit or miss for me. Any plans for some of the chapter meetings to be held during the day on a weekday, such as the PRSA meetings? Hope to see lots of interesting things here. I'm leading the SM efforts for my org, so I need all the help I can get.

The ideas page seems to be locked. How about a session on how to identify key blogs/bloggers in your industry?
