Having seen your presentation (and Andrew's before) I would suggest that visitors to this site take a look - you two get Social Media right. I did a presentation at the Digital Media Conference on the Taco Trucks of Columbus and how we used Social Media for "good" instead of evil, I was happy to see the audience "got it".

One of these days I'd like to compliment it with a presentation about libraries (with their communities) creating their own community gardens <i>literally</i>! I wish I could be there tomorrow. Have a great time. You'll "wow 'em" as usual!JenWallerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11232364563961106613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7833882.post-865998427339341122010-02-19T11:50:15.127-05:002010-02-19T11:50:15.127-05:00I'm looking forward to seeing you tomorrow.

I'll be hosting a discussion as well about making that offline engagement (which is often where a lot of work happens) more representative of online engagement. I agree with everything you've said above and hope that people will truly hear this message. See you soon!Andrew Millerhttp://andrew-miller.comnoreply@blogger.com
