January Social Media Breakfast-DC Wrap-Up

Other than to say thank you to our speakers: Geoff Living (@geoffliving), Shashib Bellamkonda (@shashib), and Alex Howard (@digiphile); our Heads of Table: Andy Carvin (@acarvin), Daria Steigman (@dariasteigman), Shonali Burke (@shonali), Josh Greene (@josh_greene), and Mike Schaffer (@mikeschaffer); and our guests! … there is not much left to say.

Our inaugural Social Media Breakfast DC (#SMBDC) was terrific!

Don’t believe me? Alex Priest did an AWESOME job recapping the event here.

A day before the Breakfast, Alex wrote a blog post version of his Breakfast presentation titled “Trends and challenges for social media in 2010.

Before leaving for the Breakfast, Geoff posted a “Get Mobile Now” manifesto on his blog.

After the event, Shashib recapped the discussion and included a Flickr slideshow with pictures of the breakfast on his Examiner blog.

One of our Heads of Table, Shonali Burke, wrote a post about the Breakfast table talk, the engaging crowd and the new friends and connections our guests were made that morning.

Thank you all! You have us COVERED!

SMB Austin wrapup: Social Media Pangea and other predictions for 2010

SMB Austin’s year-end breakfast at Mandola’s Italian Market this past Monday featured predictions on where social media is headed in 2010.

Ten Austin-area practitioners (including Tim Hayden, pictured above) had three minutes each to share their visions on how social media will shape and impact their respective industries in the year ahead. Among them: the view from Deirdre Walsh that we’re moving toward a state of Social Media Pangea.

Archived video from SMB Austin 11

Thanks to a helping hand from Brent Annear and Steve Levine from the Texas Medical Association, SMB Austin was streamed live on Ustream. The video archive can be found on our new SMB Austin Ustream channel, and the second of two segments is also embedded just below (RSS and e-mail readers: You may need to visit the original blog post to see and stream the video).

What’s next for SMB Austin?

Our Austin breakfasts will return again in early 2010. Video content creation, mobile, and social media for small business are some of the topics we’re considering for upcoming events. If you have additional suggestions, please drop me a line: bryan | AT | SocialMediaBreakfast | com.
