Meet Us in Vegas, Baby!

I’m thrilled to announce that several of the authors featured on the Conversations Matter blog will be speaking at the upcoming BlogWorld 2008. Joining me on September 20 from 11:00am - 12:00noon for what I’m certain will be a fascinating discussion on corporate social media will be Michael Brito of Intel, Tac Anderson from Hewlett-Packard, Rohit Bhargava of Ogilvy Public Relations, and Anne Plese from Cisco.

Ever wonder how successful social media marketing programs really are when executed in the real world? As members of this panel we will discuss our successful and not-so-successful social media marketing and PR programs. Titled Beyond Blogging: Stories & Social Media Lessons Learned in the Real World our fun panel of everyday experts is bound to be both entertaining and enlightening.

Rumor has it there are discounts available for those interested in attending. Tac Anderson has a code listed on his site anyway. So he must know. Be sure to let us know if you plan to attend. We’d love for you to join us for a shot of tequila.

Oh, and here’s the abstract for the panel:

Beyond Blogging: Stories & Social Media Lessons Learned in the Real World
Consultants, self-proclaimed strategists, and pundits of all sorts wax poetic on the merits of myriad social media tools and approaches. Yet few provide tangible examples of how social media marketing programs work-or fail-for business. Join this motley crew of social media strategists from Cadence, HP, Intel, and Yahoo as they discuss their real world successes and failures in this emerging space. From blogs and communities to Facebook and forums, this team of professional social media practitioners provides a unique look at how some big companies are using new media effectively, or not.
