Brad Feld spoke to a small but engaged group of attentive social media club attendees in Denver tonight. In an informal Q and A session, Brad fielded intelligent questions about social networking, social tagging, idea “seedlings” growing into real businesses, the challenge of replacing email in our communications fabric, and other compelling topics.
Brad Feld is a big concept thinker and very well immersed in all Internet technologies. For those that attended tonight in Denver, it was an intimate and special change to hear his unique perspective as a venture capitalist and personal investor in many of these types of emerging technologies. For those that missed it…too bad for you.
[...] Chris Heuer launched Social Media Club just over a year ago to bring together people who care about social media to share, learn and connect with one another. Since then, Social Media Club has evolved and now has several active chapters across the U.S. [...]
These events sound like great opportunities to expand knowledge and connect with other. I’d really like to find out more about forming a social media chapter in NC. Can anybody give me more information on this?
How was this meetings in USA? Do u have some meetings in Europe? We in Slovakia don’t have nothing like Social Media Club.
