Join me in Pasadena on Wednesday and Thursday at Executing Social Media, an interactive conference for marketing professionals and entrepreneurs.
I’m joining an incredible array of new media marketing visionaries including Chris Heuer, Jeremy Pepper, Phil Gomes, Jake McKee, Sally Falkow, and Chris Brogan.
I’m hosting a three hour workshop on Wednesday morning entitled, “From Friendfeed to Digg: An Executive Survey of Social Media Tools & Resources for PR, Customer Service, and Marketing.”

Workshop Description:
We live in interesting times. We’re currently enthralled in an immersive, confusing, and definitive transition in our “day job.” If you don’t engage, your competition will. This session will help you become a Social Media sociologist, not a cultural voyeur, in order to get to work and build relationships along the way.
Some of the tools we’ll review:
Bookmarks – Ma.gnolia, Delicious, Diigo, StumbleUpon
Crowdsourced Content – Digg, Yahoo Buzz, Mixx
Conversations – Google Alerts, Blogpulse, Radian6, Ask.com, BuzzLogic, Google Blog Search
Blog Communities – Blogged.com, MyBlogLog, BlogCatalog
Micromedia – Tweetscan, Twemes, TwitterLocal, FriendFeed
Social Networks – MySpace, Bebo, Ning, Facebook, Friendfeed, LinkedIn
Customers – YahooGroups, GoogleGroups, GetSatisfaction
Event Description:
The 3rd Communitelligence Executing Social Media Conference & Workshops is a must-attend event for anyone in need of good advice on using the new social media tools for business advantage. The conference delivers practical, how-to take-aways from two-dozen experts and practitioners who are boldly executing successful new media programs today.
Connect with me on Twitter, Jaiku, LinkedIn, Pownce, Plaxo, FriendFeed, or Facebook.
Discussion
Wish I could make it; it sounds like a very valuable session you’ll be leading.
I took a crack at mapping some of these tools a month ago for my clients.
