SohoSeminar Tweet Log

The best way to explain what we are trying to accomplish is to describe what we call the Three C’s: Collaboration, Connectivity, and Community

from Loyola University’s Information Commons Overview

On March 4 and 5, I attended and presented at Soho Seminar’s “Using Social Media to Align the Corporate and the Personal Brand Conference” at Loyola University’s Chicago campus. During a lunch break, David Kamerer, who is a Public Relations and New Media professor at Loyola, took us on a tour of the Information Commons. Here’s the view from inside . . .

What a stunning space for Collaboration, Connectivity and Community.

These 3 C’s also apply to social media, don’t you think?

During the conference, I shared my observations on twitter via @wiredprworks.

In case you missed them, here they are with no editing, except to add in a twitter ID that wasn’t included in one original tweet. To read the tweets in order of update, start at the bottom and read up.

Looking for the highlights only? Then, check out the tweets in italics.

who owns the followers? the company or the personal brand? interesting question . . . quantifying ownership/relationships #sohoseminar 1:50 PM Mar 4th via HootSuite

company owns tools, assets and experience and customer owns interactions/relationships in sm #sohoseminar 1:46 PM Mar 4th via web

in most cases companies will never own the relationship – causes hesitancy in jumping into social media #sohoseminar 1:44 PM Mar 4th via web
