I have been thinking about this question for a couple of years and have a few thoughts around a coherent answer which I have talked about through this blog and through comments on other people’s blogs. I have talked about it in a beercast with Mike […]

I noticed this article, Web 2.0: Does ‘old media’ get it? by ZDNet’s Donna Bogatin discusses the meme started by friend of Social Media Club Tom Foremski regarding are companies like Google the New Media companies, which also implies the NY/Hollywood crowd are over.
Donna comes out with some good ideas about NYC, including some […]

Marc Andreessen is probably not used to being late to the party. After all, in the 1990s he WAS the party: It was the IPO of the company he founded, Netscape, that launched the commerical Internet explosion.
After a complete transformation of his company’s focus, and a year of beta-testing of its product, Andreessen yesterday officially […]

Well, apparently, last week was prime for politics-on-the-brain! After we’d settled on “politics online” as the topic for our Feb. 22 meet-up, it turned out that the New York group focused on that same topic at their meeting just two days earlier. There’s been plenty happening in that realm, so it’s really no […]

We just finalized plans and signed the contract on our first Social Media Clubhouse and I am tickled pink (well not pink, but you know what I mean). From March 7-13th, we will be in Las Vegas for the New Comm Forum and the Community 2.0 Conferences, so we rented an awesome house where […]

On 20FEB2007, we gathered at CNet headquarters in San Francisco to talk with Tom Abate of the San Francisco Chronicle (and ) about interview techniques. It was certainly the right group of people for this topic, with some people just getting started like Lorna Li of and her friend/new editor Marianne Betterly, a veteran […]

Michael Meyers of NowPublic did […]

Once again, the use of the term Social Media is under scrutiny by some of the loudest voices in the blogosphere. Robert Scoble’s post “what is social media” seems to have reignited a thread that Jeremiah Owyang started a couple of weeks ago that I responded to with my post, Is It Really Called […]

I say that lovingly of course, as I often reference myself in the same terms, jokingly - though he did rent his chest, which may make it a bit more literal than in my case.  First off, I must preface this by saying that Chris is a colleague, and over the past year plus, has […]

This month, the London Chapter met at the offices of Blue Rubicon - actually, I’m not very comfortable calling it a chapter - the only organisation I associate that with is Hell’s Angels, so we shall see… Again, there were new faces but there is a small core of regulars emerging and around 20 […]

A PR person I met at a recent Social Media Club meeting has asked if I could help him find the bloggers are who are most authoritative relating to the product category and the specific brand of his client.
We agreed that I’d answer his email in public (thanks, Doc Searls for that metaphor) by […]
