Social Media Club Chicago Panel Discussion, October 2009

We filmed this panel discussion on social media in Chicago earlier this month - I wanted to share it with you because you all indicated in our recent poll that social media was one of the areas you were most interested in getting more information on.

The Social Media Club Chicago is a chapter of the national SMC organization. SMC Chicago is the fastest growing networking group in the Chicagoland area. The group started in October 2008 and already has over 1300 members in Chicago. SMC focuses on educating businesses and individuals through discussions and workshops about how to use social media, while bringing people together. They meet once a month in Chicago at various locations, and it is free to join.

After watching this video, you should do some Googling and find out if there are similar clubs or meet-ups in your own local area. Nothing brings the fullness of social media value to light more than connecting online with offline relationships.
