Social Media Breakfast History
Over the last few weeks I've been quietly planning and plotting a new branch of the nationwide Social Media Breakfast in NH. It isn't that we don't love Boston, because we do, but our neighbor to the north is rich in technology and social media, and often overlooked when events are planned. I saw a need for networking opportunities that were easier to get to for the northern tech and social media crowd, and decided to step up and fill it. Because NH itself is a diverse and scattered state, the Social Media Breakfast there will be just a little bit different than the one in Cambridge/Boston.
What is a Social Media Breakfast?
From the official description: The Social Media Breakfast was founded by Bryan Person in August 2007 as an event where social media experts and newbies alike come together to eat, meet, share, and learn. Marketers, PR pros, entrepreneurs, bloggers, podcasters, new-media fanatics, and online social networkers are all welcome to attend.
The breakfast series began in Boston and has now spread to more than a dozen cities throughout the United States and around the world.
How will the Social Media Breakfast in NH be different?
The main difference between Social Media Breakfast NH and other SMBs will be all-inclusiveness. I do not want only social media people and companies to attend, I also want technology types, programmers, coders, tech writers, tech companies and more to attend. As a state that is rich in technology but scattered in distance, I think the best networking and connection making effect will be achieved by combined our different cultures. You never know, as a social media type you might just meet the coder you've been looking for to create your dream project if we all come together to connect and to learn from each other!
Theme for the second Social Media Breakfast: Government 2.0 (how utilities, organizations for the environment, and more work with and from municipalities and other entities using social media to achieve goals)
The second Social Media Breakfast NH (hashtag #smbnh) will be all about topics related to Government 2.0. In this struggling economy and shifting paradigm we need to be working together to be more successful and better weather the storm. We should be pulling in all aspects of technology, new media, old media and social media to succeed. This meeting will help us lay the foundation for a richer, better education, tech and new media community in NH.
In addition to myself, who will be your host and MC for the morning, you will have three speakers giving three brief presentations on topics relating to the theme for the morning.
'Electric Tweets' - Why @psnh followers increased 1,700% in one week Public Service of New Hampshire's Martin Murray will discuss the electric utility's use of Twitter and other social media.
Boston Police Department is sending John Daley to discuss their web outreach efforts via Twitter and other media.
Now or Never Media is pleased to participate in the Social Media Breakfast. Project Director, Melissa Paly and Creative Director Bill Rogers will present their project on climate change solutions. Now or Never is a series for broadcast and the web about actions people are taking in their homes, communities, towns, businesses, schools, farms, forests and faith places to be part of the solution to climate change. Now or Never is partnering with other influential non-profit, business and educational organizations including Union of Concerned Scientists, Clean Air • Cool Planet, The Watson Institute at Brown University and the Green Alliance. Partnerships like these help create social networks and an audience eager for participation.
Third speaker will be announced once they re-confirm with me via email.
