January 30, 2007 | Leave a Comment
The Society for New Communications Research is delighted to announce that it has been invited, along with Social Media Club. to be a co-producer of the popular Bay Area Third Thursday Meetup, by TT founders Mike Manuel, Giovanni Rodriguez, Phil Gomes and Jeremy Pepper.
In January, we met at Shine SF in San Francisco. The event featured a panel discussion about the social media press release. Panelists included SNCR Fellows Shel Holtz and Tom Foremski, as well as Brian Solis of FutureWorks PR, and Joel Tesch from BusinessWire. The discussion was moderated by Chris Heuer of Social Media Club.
Shel Holtz recorded the event for a podcast. Listen to it here.
In February, Third Thursdays will feature a discussion about monitoring and measurement of social media. Why is it important to monitor social media and consumer generated content? What are the tools and services available? What differentiates them? How do you know which one is right for you? How do you measure influence in this vast and continuously growing mediasphere? Which metrics really matter? Where should you start? These are just some of the questions we’ll be asking our panel of experts. What are yours? Visit our wiki and share your thoughts and questions and please join us on February 15th in Palo Alto, CA for a great conversation!
