@samueljsmith 1st thoughts: That's how to do a social media integrated webinar with content. We could learn just from UX alone #eventprofs |

KenaSiu: |
@samueljsmith Hello Samuel... they gave great ideas about how to use SM to engage people. The secret password was my favorite! #eventprofs |

Hi everyone, Kena from Dracula land #eventprofs |

ready2spark: |
@Jeffhurt Absolutely - just wish the feed would allow for twitter comments (the technology just has to catch up) #eventprofs |
| 12:37 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@Jeffhurt I was very impressed as well. I had tweet chat window open and the video at the same time. It was cool! #eventprofs |

@KenaSiu The Secret Password was a great idea. Can you use that in your business? #eventprofs |
| 12:38 pm |
spkrinteractive: |
@ready2spark I am working on that. Will be twebevent.com #eventprofs |
| 12:38 pm |
KatrinaG: |
@samueljsmith 1st thoughts: marketing is genuinely about 1) helping 2)conversation, & reflecting ur brand in that convo #eventprofs |
| 12:38 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@ready2spark @jeffhurt I thought it was cool to see tweetchat matching the video stream. It made the whole thing very real. #eventprofs |
| 12:38 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@ready2spark Technology there. Almost.at & stuff @spkrinteractive working on has that technology. #eventprofs |
| 12:39 pm |
ready2spark: |
@spkrinteractive Fantastic! Please let me know when this launches. #eventprofs |
| 12:39 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@samueljsmith I did same thing. Voice, video, tweetchat and monitored tweetdeck. Got DM's from organizers 2 run interference #eventprofs |
| 12:39 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@Jeffhurt Also, I think that a case study to compare the two webcast strategies should come out of these two events. #eventprofs |
| 12:40 pm |
KatrinaG: |
I loved the secret password idea too! Also was great to see how different industries approach marketing #eventprofs |
| 12:40 pm |
spkrinteractive: |
@ready2spark Certainly. Would love some volunteers to help review the specs. #eventprofs |
| 12:40 pm |
ready2spark: |
@Jeffhurt Thanks for the info on almost.at. I'm looking 2 do something similar for my ISES Eventworld panel. #eventprofs |
| 12:40 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@samueljsmith I am on their advisory board. I can make that happen. Organizers good collegue friends. #eventprofs |
| 12:40 pm |
KatrinaG: |
@Jeffhurt how do you mean by "run interference" if I may ask? #eventprofs |
| 12:41 pm |
KenaSiu: |
@samueljsmith It could be use to design business cards for clients so they can come back for other services #eventprofs |
| 12:41 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@ready2spark If you use Ustream.tv it has twitter chat built into it. ustream.tv is free. #eventprofs |
| 12:41 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@Jeffhurt It would be a powerful tool for all associations and event planners #eventprofs |

ready2spark: |
@iandavmcg What is TS2? #eventprofs |
| 12:42 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@Jeffhurt @ready2spark UStream.TV will not be as fancy as those various camera angles - but it does a darn good job for free. #eventprofs |
| 12:43 pm |
KatrinaG: |
@samueljsmith in events, maybe "codes" to win free workshops? or to get people to participate in roundrobin meetings #eventprofs |
| 12:43 pm |

@samueljsmith it was excellently done, the webinar! #eventprofs |
| 12:43 pm |
KatrinaG: |
@ShowTecAE and good morning!:D #eventprofs |
| 12:44 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@samueljsmith I beg to disagree. It depends on the quality of the camera. I've seen fantastic video from it at Unconferences. #eventprofs |
| 12:44 pm |
samueljsmith: |
{moderator} So, applying some of the content to events. How do you generate love with your members, clients, etc.? #eventprofs |

@samueljsmith Generating love-> executing great events, being helpful, overaccomplishing #eventprofs |
| 12:45 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@Jeffhurt Point taken. The quality of the camera and the position will determine quality. #eventprofs |

samueljsmith: |
@ready2spark Can you expand on that? #eventprofs |

samueljsmith: |
If you had to compare your SM strategy to one of the panelists. Which panelist would you be? #eventprofs |
| 12:50 pm |

I loved seeing marketing as a "Romance". Tells you that careful planning of pre-buzz of events = imp! #eventprofs |

samueljsmith: |
...Taco Lady, National Geographic, SM Expert or Guy? #eventprofs |
| 12:51 pm |

I had a client used to call it "the warm and fuzzy feeling". Do your clients have the warm and fuzzy? #eventprofs |

ShowTecAE: |
@Jeffhurt Agreed! #eventprofs |
| 12:52 pm |

@samueljsmith I think I'm more of a "Guy" person, but I think I'd like to replicate what Taco Lady has done #eventprofs |
| 12:52 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@samueljsmith In all those cases there was a corporate culture that embraced social. How many of us have that type culture? #eventprofs |

ShowTecAE: |
@samueljsmith A mix of Taco Lady and SM Expert. #eventprofs |

@Jeffhurt Dude. You are an expert -- the black jacket dude. Hands down. #eventprofs |

I am curious to see what the thoughts on TweetHawk are? #eventprofs |

@ShowTecAE I can see that! #eventprofs |

@samueljsmith Too kind. I have a long way to go. I & 2 staff are stealth at work. Boss doesn't get it but loves results. #eventprofs |

@KatrinaG The Taco lady was cool because she was personable and authentic. #eventprofs |

@samueljsmith Yeah, I provide value and resources, but still have a product to sell. (And a great product at that!) #eventprofs |

@ShowTecAE Good question. What did you all think about Twitter Hawk, Objective Marketer and Twitter feed? #eventprofs |
| 12:56 pm |
KenaSiu: |
@samueljsmith And besides that, seems she was the only one using SM for the company #eventprofs |

@ShowTecAE From a consumer perspective dont know if I like it 100%, however I love how Guy used it #eventprofs |

@KatrinaG I'm with you on that one, being authentic! #eventprofs |

hi #eventprofs. Jay from Orlando. Meeting designer and visualizer. missed the webinar so I'm just observing. Sounds like I missed a ton! |
| 12:59 pm |

@samueljsmith Another take away. Views & RTs important ROI tools, not just # of comments. #eventprofs |
| 12:59 pm |
samueljsmith: |
What did you think about the National Geographic Approach? Sounds like an interesting way to extend events to me. #eventprofs |
| 1:00 pm |
ShowTecAE: |
@jaysmet I'm pretty sure it was archived, so you can go back and view it. #eventprofs |

@KenaSiu Yes- showing how you awesome you are as a conversationist in SM is hard though! Being a bubbly person I dont want 2 #eventprofs |

Anthr takeaway from NGO: Biggest pain point = predictability Which Content will bcom conversational, varial #eventprofs |
| 1:27 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@samueljsmith @ShowTecAe Agreed. Have to decide goals first, then decide which tools work for you. #eventprofs |
| 1:27 pm |
jaysmet: |
@samueljsmith The key here is "design". Design a solution for each event based on unique needs & constraints #eventprofs oops Show said it |

@Jeffhurt Also, you can't force Viral #eventprofs |

Good POint @jaysmet. Did everyone read Jay's blog post on Ultimate Networking this week? #eventprofs |

ShowTecAE: |
@Jeffhurt @Samueljsmith I will be on a webinar panel on the 22nd with EMI addressing this topic specifically. #eventprofs |

@samueljsmith No, can you post link? #eventprofs |
| 1:29 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@ShowTecAE Which topic tools? #eventprofs |
| 1:30 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@ShowTecAE Absolutely, I'm all for divergent thought. Not about right or wrong. It's about embracing every1's POV & experience. #eventprofs |

@KatrinaG would love to join, but uncomfortable about joining from work PC-will look 4 archive 2nite. Thx 4 your consideration! #eventprofs |
| 1:31 pm |
jaysmet: |
@Jeffhurt on viral predictability, gotta play the odds a little bit! Send out a lot and see what sticks. Do you have guidelines? #eventprofs |
| 1:31 pm |
ShowTecAE: |
@Jeffhurt I know, it was a joke. :) #eventprofs |
| 1:31 pm |

@ShowTecAE sweet! to hear your expertise =). How much does webinar cost? #eventprofs |

@samueljsmith I'm having some probs with Tweetme. All user related. Can't get it to refer 2 specific post w/o changing url... #eventprofs |
| 1:31 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@KatrinaG BTW, I've learned that my followers normally increase during live chats, not decrease. Odd right. #eventprofs |

@KatrinaG IT'S FREE #eventprofs |

KatrinaG: |
@MsStallings OK np! #bearhug - understandable:D.... I hope you have a stress-free day:) #eventprofs |
| 1:32 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@ShowTecAE I got the joke too! Just wanted to agree without being disagreeable! #eventprofs |
| 1:32 pm |
ready2spark: |
@jaysmet Don't have that stat available to me. Have to view individual bookmarking sites to see who's shared. #eventprofs |
| 1:32 pm |
ShowTecAE: |
@Jeffhurt We are too agreeable at times Jeff. #eventprofs |
| 1:33 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@jaysmet We use our best judgement for trying to preduct viral, just like we do with print marketing. No guidelines yet #eventprofs |
| 1:33 pm |
ready2spark: |
@Jeffhurt Totally agree. #eventprofs |
| 1:33 pm |
KatrinaG: |
@ShowTecAE oh YAY!...I have to check my sched, but totally hope it doesnt clash with my family's vacation! (being dragged on it) #eventprofs |
| 1:33 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@ready2spark Ok. Can anyone help Spark with Tweetme? #eventprofs |
| 1:33 pm |
KatrinaG: |
@Jeffhurt yeah- or stays even! Somehow people dont mind twitchats? I guess? #eventprofs |
| 1:33 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@ShowTecAE And if you can intergrate the b4, during & after event into overall community experience, even bigger payback #eventprofs |
| 1:34 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@ShowTecAE I am doing something similar in London on Tuesday. #eventprofs |
| 1:34 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@samueljsmith We so need @tojulius. He's more geek than I am. I have to ask for help too, often. #eventprofs |
| 1:34 pm |
ShowTecAE: |
@Jeffhurt Exactly! I'll post the link and details to the Webinar when it's posted. #eventprofs |

@samueljsmith Really? Care to share notes? #eventprofs |

samueljsmith: |
@Jeffhurt He's probably eating dinner. Its 7:30 for him #eventprofs |
| 1:35 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
Q B4 we leave. How do we as event planners make our events part of larger community experience so every1 benefits. #eventprofs |
| 1:35 pm |
ready2spark: |
@samueljsmith I'm sure it's an HTML code thing. But haven't figured it out yet. #eventprofs |
| 1:36 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@ShowTecAE Sure, we can organize a skype call. #eventprofs |
| 1:36 pm |
ShowTecAE: |
@samueljsmith Sounds good. Let's set details after chat. #eventprofs |
| 1:37 pm |
ShowTecAE: |
@Jeffhurt IF the event is a public one, twitter, facebook and blogs to start. Repost content and shared exp when available #eventprofs |
| 1:38 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@Jeffhurt IMO you need to engage the larger audience in dialogue. #eventprofs |
| 1:38 pm |
ShowTecAE: |
@ready2spark Sorry lady, I haven't worked with that program yet. #eventprofs |
| 1:38 pm |
KatrinaG: |
@Jeffhurt maybe prior to event, let people participate in the planning- ie let them vote on the font of banners, placards..? #eventprofs |
| 1:39 pm |
ShowTecAE: |
@Jeffhurt Also, OWN YOUR HASHTAG! Keep involved with the SM community. #eventprofs |
| 1:39 pm |
jaysmet: |
Also, I'll be at WEC taking visual notes. Any Tues am sessions you'd like to have me attend & share? #eventprofs http://bit.ly/eMdZV |
| 1:39 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@ShowTecAE Grt point. And if done properly, attendees can bcom evangelist of experience & share w/ othrs repurpose content. #eventprofs |
| 1:39 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@Jeffhurt IF PPL can't come f2f, you need to open a pathway for them to engage, listen and discuss the content. #eventprofs |
| 1:39 pm |
spkrinteractive: |
@cindymichelle gr8 point. Tone is everything. Bureaus & speakers need to work together to prep for what #eventprofs r starting to request |

RT @ShowTecAE: @Jeffhurt Also, OWN YOUR HASHTAG! Keep involved with the SM community. #eventprofs-> love it! |
| 1:40 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@samueljsmith That's what I think too. To help association members or in our case all meeting planners lrn, converese & engage. #eventprofs |
| 1:40 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@Jeffhurt ...Participants(f2f & online) need to be able to chat peer-to-peer as well as to spkrs and organizers #eventprofs |
| 1:40 pm |
ShowTecAE: |
@Jeffhurt BINGO! BRand evangelists can be created for conferences and Associations. #eventprofs |

@jaysmet so jealous of attendees of #wec09- being "poor" (unemployed) has got no benefits LOL #eventprofs |
| 1:41 pm |
jaysmet: |
@Jeffhurt What is the larger timeline/framework of the event? What inputs can help B4? How will outputs be used after & by whom? #eventprofs |
| 1:41 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@ShowTecAE @jeffhurt Brand Evangelists exist for every association & most events already. #eventprofs |
| 1:41 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@ShowTecAE And it's so much more than brand evangelist, it's actually making it viral through social sharing., #eventprofs |
| 1:41 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@jaysmet I intentionall ask spkrs for blog posts, webianrs radio interviews b4 & after event to engage larger aud. #eventprofs |
| 1:42 pm |
KatrinaG: |
speaking of SM, what's the biggest and best social network FOR event planners only? besides LinkedIn? #eventprofs |
| 1:43 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@KatrinaG that is a good point. #eventprofs |
| 1:43 pm |
ShowTecAE: |
@Jeffhurt @samueljsmith Agreed, but the more the merrier. Look at MPI with VAP, most BE's are either quiet or turning. #eventprofs |
| 1:43 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@jaysmet I'm starting 2 embrare *networked learning*, social, informal peer2peer learning like this. Facilitate this exp 4 event #eventprofs |

ShowTecAE @samueljsmith I was trying hard not 2 refer to them & I was really thinking on larger scale, bigger issue than 1 assoc #eventprofs |
| 1:44 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@ShowTecAE @Jeffhurt And it is too bad. There are millions of potential members out there that could join the org. #eventprofs |
| 1:44 pm |
jaysmet: |
@KatrinaG I'm sharing all my notes from session on blog/twitter, etc. Not the same, but at least you get to skip security lines! #eventprofs |
| 1:44 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@KatrinaG That's a loaded question. Industry very fragmented. Find what tool you like best and find the community there. #eventprofs |
| 1:45 pm |
ShowTecAE: |
@Jeffhurt @samueljsmith Agreed, but they are a good example to use. How about the Skittles Facebook fiasco? Again, bad Viral. #eventprofs |
| 1:45 pm |
spkrinteractive: |
Challenge is that bureaus r relationship businesses. Similar role for decades. Speakers & #eventprofsr driving change #spkrchat |

@Jeffhurt @ShowTecAE If you want to build raving fans you have to give each of them a way to express themselves. #eventprofs |

@Jeffhurt OK- that comes with finding out what my fave niche is atm, I suppose. Will seriously think! #eventprofs |
| 1:46 pm |
jaysmet: |
@Jeffhurt love "networked learning" idea! I think SM can help us break the mold of F2F events -- more P2P, less talking heads #eventprofs |
| 1:46 pm |
Jeffhurt: |
@ShowTecAE @samueljsmith Skittles FB fiasco seen a lot of different ways though. PPl could engage, not exclusive. #eventprofs |

@KatrinaG Twitter ain't so bad. ;) Actually, I only belong to LinkedIn and FB groups. Don't have much time for others. #eventprofs |

samueljsmith: |
@jaysmet That is awesome. You should Flip video yourself and others too. #eventprofs |
| 1:47 pm |
ShowTecAE: |
@samueljsmith @jeffhurt Yes, like earlier post Viral is not controlled, not forced. Have to give BE's tools to grow it organic #eventprofs |
| 1:48 pm |

@pfont Loove Twitter! *beams* and trying to step up on LinkedIn use! #eventprofs |

@samueljsmith PS my mother told me NEVER to Flip video myself and put it on the web.... ;-) But I'll have my Flip with me! #eventprofs |
| 1:56 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@jaysmet Many people are still learning how to do it. Too many ppl just "plug in" the technology. #eventprofs |
| 1:58 pm |
samueljsmith: |
@jaysmet Or if you have a new iphone - there is an auto-upload-to-Youtube-and-Tweet application for videos. #eventprofs |
