Citizen Me Meets Blog On

Next Monday 10/17, the BlogOn Social Media Summit will convene at the Copacabana in NYC. Organized by The Guidewire Group, the summit bills itself as
the premier executive conference for forward-thinking marketing and communications executives who are considering strategic initiatives in social media such as blogs, RSS and podcasts...
With the help of two angels who have asked to remain anonymous (thanks guys!), I will be attending--once again sticking my nose into places where I probably don't belong...

but, heck, it's my business. I want to know what these folks are doing and saying--what they are up to....and what it means to those of us down here in the social sphere itself.

Hi Tish

Here's some fodder:

I see "Learn how to use social media to create more meaningful conversations with your customers from leading experts including Seth Godin, David Weinberger, Gil Schwartz, Jackie Huba, Jeff Jarvis and Steve Rubel."

How many conferences a year do these guys attend??? Seems like that would be a useful factoid to find out.

Hey Seth!

Very good point! Considering I saw Steve Rubel at We Media, and Jarvis was at Web 2.0 (talk about a bloated love-fest), I wonder myself...

yikes! Looks like I'm going to have to wear the stilettos and something low-cut rather than just sneakers, beat-up jeans, and a t-shirt
