Technosailor Set to Lead DC’s February SMC Event on Thursday

February 19, 2008 by Geoff Livingston 

Hot off the presses, we’re announcing the SMC-DC meet-up for February! Our friend who is “kind of a big deal”, Aaron Brazell of Technosailor and District of Corruption will headline the event for a discussion and Q&A session about his work as Director of Technology at b5media and social media strategies and personal branding. We’re looking forward to it and hope he cleans up as nicely as he did for the Julia Nixon concert. (Kidding)

n31200347_32062359_2328The topic will be “Blog Draft Day: Making it into the Bigs” and feature Aaron’s insight on the technical and personal branding issues that social media “celebrities” can often face.

Aaron will discuss the types of social media used as well as the benefits and challenges of managing blogs for “A-listers”. For example, b5media manages bloggers Darren Rowse of Problogger, Brian Clark from Copyblogger, Spencer Yip from Siliconera.com, Liz Strauss from Successful-blog.com and Glen Stansberry from lifedev.net; the size of these sites exposes them to many issues, including downtime.

Please RSVP by Tuesday, February 19 to Larissa Fair.

Special thanks to Viget Labs for hosting the event.
