See you at Boston Media Makers on June 3rd

The next meeting of the Boston Media Makers is on Sunday, June 3rd

I'm hoping that we'll end the discussion with a kick-a** tip sheet for video bloggers who want to get started promoting their blogs and shows.

Here's the description that Steve Garfield posted:

I’m looking forward to the next meeting at Sweet Finnish in Jamaica Plain on Sunday June 3rd at 10:00 AM.

10:00 - 10:30 Mingling
10:30 - 11:30 Roundtable
11:30 - Noon ( or later ) Discussion

Beth Kanter will lead us in a discussion about how to get your video seen. Using social media tools and other methods to help people find your videos.

Bring your best promo tips to share. 

This isn’t going to be a lecture or presentation. We’re all going to share what’s worked for us and think about ideas for the future.

The intelligence is in the room!

Here are some of Beth’s ideas we’ll talk about:

-Use of tags — many as possible to describe your videoblog post
-Tag your video blog post into del.icio.us - forward to your del.icio.us
network
-Screenshot in flickr with url to blog post or videoblog post
-Send your flickr screenshot to groups, contacts
-email to list of friends
-RSS feed (of course)
-send your video to appropriate groups on video hosting sites
-ego feed and topic feed via watchlists on technorati - and comment on those
blogs with similar content and leave your url
-linked in appropriate directories/collections related to your topic
-posted to blog, ping technorati
-post to any social networking profiles and ping your friends

She’ll be presenting these ideas at this week’s Making Media Conference.  Here’s her presentation and a wiki with tons of resources.
