Social Media Panel

Get Social Media? from JohnstonWells Public Relations on Vimeo.


I participated in this panel back in November hosted by the PR firm Johnston-Wells of Denver. These guys are at the forefront of helping companies figure out the new world of social media and "the why and how" of effectively participating in this powerful distributed world of consumer influence.

The event was well attended by local companies in the Denver front range community and highlighted the range of emotional embrace organizations have for social media, from outright fear to competitive advantage.

Forrester Meeting

I had a great meeting with Josh Bernoff, one of the authors of Groundswell today. Josh has a lot on his hands lately with the announcement that Charlene Li and Peter Kim are leaving. Was an informative meeting and always great to work with the people at Forrester. Good luck Josh.

Interview

I was interviewed the other day by local Colorado marketing blogger Marie Rotter about how Collective Intellect is helping companies track, understand, and engage with social media. It's fun doing interviews with bloggers who are trying to spread the social media word. Very meta I guess. Social media on social media.

I also, ordered Charlene Li's book called, "GroundSwell" off of Amazon today. I recently sat on a panel with Charlene, looks like it has great reviews, and am looking forward to sitting down with it somewhere over America in the near future.
