Upcoming March Events
Posted by Nick O'Neill on February 27th, 2008 11:13 AMMarch is an extremely busy month for events. I will be speaking at as well as attending a few events around the country. There are also some Facebook oriented events that I won’t have the fortune of attending.
One of the conferences that I’m most excited about is next week’s Graphing Social Patterns conference in San Diego. The conference has an all-star list of speakers from the social technology space including Charlene Li, Amit Kapur of Myspace, Benjamin Ling of Facebook, David Glazer of Google, Seth Goldstein of SocialMedia, Mark Pincus of Zynga, David Recordon of Six Apart, myself and many many more! This conference is a must attend for anybody in the social technology space. For those east coast social technology people that won’t be able to make the trip out to California next week, there will be an exciting announcement of a local conference coming in the next week so stay tuned! If you are interested in attending, check out the Graphing Social Patterns website and use the discount code gspw08spbl for a 30 percent discount.
I can’t believe it’s already here! Next week is the beginning of the South by Southwest Interactive festival. This event is when practically everybody from the interactive field converges on the town of Austin for one week of non-stop partying and networking. Mark Zuckerberg will be keynoting the event. I will be sure to post the video of his talk on this site as soon as it takes place. There are panels taking place throughout the entire event as well as a trade show and exhibition of the latest products to come out of the interactive industry. Take a look at the hundreds of speakers attending the event and you’ll immediately realize this is a who’s who of the entire industry. If you will be attending shoot me an email or add me on Twitter and say hello! If you want to learn more about the event check out the SXSW Interactive website.
The second SNAP Summit will be held on March 25th in San Francisco. I had the fortune to speak on a panel at the first SNAP Summit. While I won’t be attending this one there is a great list of speakers including Dave Morin of Facebook, Aber Whitcomb the CTO of Myspace, Jia Shen of RockYou, Dave McClure, Naval Ravikant, Jeremiah Owyang and many more! If you want to learn more about the event, please check out the Snap Summit website.
I will be speaking on a panel March 26th at the What’s Next Boomer Business Summit. One of the keynotes will be from the Wall Street Journal journalist, Walt Mossberg. The event’s purpose is to bring together those organizations that are leaders in the baby boomer market. While I am not a member of this market, there is a panel on leveraging social networking for business that I will be speaking on. If you are in D.C. and aren’t booked on March 26th, I highly recommend checking out the What’s Next Boomer Business Summit.
