Social Media Club NY Meeting Summary
October 26, 2006 by Howard Greenstein
It’s pretty late, so I’ll post more about the meeting tomorrow.
We had a great crowd show up. A bit of discussion on “What is Social Media,” which morphed into discussion about Disclosure and what one discloses when one creates Social Media. I’ll have more coherent thoughts tomorrow, and will also link to anyone who blogs about the meeting.
Here are a few pictures from when the meeting was breaking up.
David Berkowitz attended and wrote up some thoughts here.
Eric Nerlich has more notes on the meeting here. One thing Eric notes:
It’s still in the formative stages, and it’s unclear what it’s for and what it’s meant to achieve, and the founders Chris Heuer and Howard Greenstein are looking for input. Yes, that’s right, Social Media Club is itself an experiment in social media.
I’m not going to say that we don’t know what the club is for or meant to achieve. The about page has some pretty solid ideas. I think Chris and I, along with Kristie, Brian, Tim, Mitch and others are just willing to listen to others who want to co-create the club to which they want to belong. That is what this whole Web 2.x thing is about, right?

Wish I could have made it.

Francine, I repled in email.

Sorry, Howard, I didn’t mean to imply that you didn’t know what you were looking to do with Social Media Club. I think it’s great that you’re being so open about accepting input from others on direction. For instance, it’s great that you started off the meeting with a discussion of what social media is - it got people thinking and talking, and that’s half the battle right there.
Anyway, just wanted to say that my comment sounds more snarky than I meant it to be. Sorry about that.
Eric:
Thanks so much for clarifying. This just shows the beauty of media you can reply to.
