Raleigh Tweetup

This morning I went to a local Social Media group that has formed around twitter and SocialCarolina.org. Wayne, Francis, Ryan and Ginny were there, and I am now following all of them on Twitter and they are following me. It was definitely a new media event, as everyone had laptops, Wayne twittered the topics of conversations, plus we had a video camera running and tapped into ustream. This allowed other local folks (over 20 of them) to watch and listen to the conversation and join in via twitter.

It is always interesting to be the marketing guy in a group of techies. It allows me to bring a different perspective to the conversation.
