New Media Jim Chats Up Twitter in DC
November 13, 2007 by Geoff Livingston
Social Media Club’s DC Chapter is kicking into high gear. “New Media” Jim Long, one of the most popular voices on Twitter and a top video blogger, will give a fireside chat on Twitter to Washington DC Members of Social Media Club on November 29. Twitter continues to evolve as the leading microblogging platform, far outpacing its competitors the Google acquisition Jaiku and Pownce. Hear Jim’s experiences and thoughts on best practices within Twitter, and bring your own, too.
The chat will be held at Viget Labs (the company that built Squidoo) on November 29 in Falls Church from 6:30 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. All the directions you could ever want: http://www.viget.com/contact-directions.html. Here’s a link to the Google Map.
This event is almost closed (capped at 60 attendees), but to register, email Geoff Livingston at Geoff@livingstonbuzz.com or visit the Social Media Club DC’s community site on Facebook. Image credit to debs.
