Social Media Breakfast – Twin Cities 3

Posted on Apr 30, 2008 in blog, conference, social media

Hey everyone, we finally have concrete news on the next Twin Cities Social Media Breakfast. SMB-TC3 will be held at Concordia University in St. Paul on May 16th. After the fantastic turnout & and small space of the last event, we’ve been looking for a better space for the next one. It seems like there aren’t a lot of places that had what we seem to need for our event. Namely, larger space for 20 or more people, WiFi, centrally located, access to public transportation, and food/coffee. All the spaces that did have enough space were actual conference facilities that start...

Posted on Apr 23, 2008 in blog, blogging, conference

Well the stars aligned and smiled on your’s truly.  I’ll be going to Chicago at the beginning of May for SOBCon08!  For awhile, it didn’t look promising with timing or finances to make it, but I think my wife Amy has been planning to surprise me.  Thanks honey! I’ll be joining some of my Twitter friends in Chicago May 2nd, 3rd, & 4th along with some of some of my favorite bloggers of all time.  Looks to be a great event that I’m really looking forward to...

Social Media Breakfast – Twin Cities 2

Posted on Apr 1, 2008 in blog, conference, social media

I’d like to let my fellow SMBer’s  in Minneapolis & St. Paul know about the next SMB-TC event!  It’ll be held at the Caribou Coffee in Roseville, just off Snelling Ave.  They’ve got a dedicated conference room that may be more conducive to being able to talk with everyone, working WiFi, and great coffee. Although the room is smaller as it holds ~12 people or so, I think it may let us have better ability to talk without having to play musical chairs.  I’m interested in all feedback on this one as I’m going to try to find a similar,...

Connections 2007 – Day 4 Wrap-up

Posted on Apr 5, 2007 in blog, conference

Sorry for being a day late, I ran out of time yesterday! Today was the wrap-up of the main conference, as only the post-con sessions are left. It’s always kind of a let-down because you know that its almost over. Alright, there actually were several good sessions today. Here’s my recap. Session one was The File Server Is Dead: Implementing Windows SharePoint Services Document Libraries with Dan Holme of Intelliem. Obviously, the main point of Document Libraries is to store documents from the Office Suite since Office 2003/2007 can publish directly to the DL. Other uses are...
