Social Media Club Phoenix - December meeting


The Phoenix group had their first meeting last week with well over 50 people in attendance and lively conversations around the meaning of Social Media, creativity, purpose, platform, and desire to cooperate and support each on the endeavor. Tery Spataro provided me a great quote around the evening with ‘As an “Old Timer”, memories of the early beginnings came back to me as I saw a new resurgence of spirit in a media intended for sharing and collaboration.’ Nice Tery. This gets me all warm and fuzzy.

They are now planning their second meeting to be held on December 14, 2006 from 6:30pm to 9:00pm at La Madeline - in the wine room, located at 3102 East Camelback Road (Camelback and 32nd) in Phoenix. The December roundtable will be lead by Francine Hardaway, Ed Nusbaum and Amanda Vega and they will work with the group to dig a little deeper into what Social Media really is, in addition to covering topics suggested by the Phoenix participants.
There is no cost to attend this roundtable, but we do ask that you pre-register so we may prepare for your arrival.

It was so wonderful to see so many people interested in a topic that can span such a large grouping of industry and implementation. I was thrilled to see some like minded people, competitors, and friends alike all ready to give some mindshare and simply connect on a topic that we all have a different affinity for, clearly. I look forward to the next meeting. Please let me know if there is anything we can do to help with the future meetings or topics you would like to see covered.

Thanks!

Amanda, thanks for offering to help. This topic will be “What is Social Media,” and you might want to help Ed moderate. I’ve had the hip replacement (blog is at http://www.francine-hipreplacement.blogspot.com) and I am home and happy, but I can’t predict how much I will be able to do to coordinate this particular meeting. Any help sincerely appreciated.

Thanks Ed & Francine — see you guys at the December meeting. Nice “hip” blog Francine, loved the email. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help with the Dec. meeting or otherwise — work the door, bounce the ruffians, etc.
