I'm coming to Minnesota at the end of the month to give a keynote at Message+Medium+Mission Conference, nonprofit tech conference co-sponsored by the good folks at the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits and MAP for Nonprofits.
If you are planning on attending, I look forward to meeting you. If you're thinking about coming, hurry up because the early bird discount is only available until Feb. 29th. You can register here.
The conference description:
Message + Medium + Mission is designed to provide an overview of current and emerging technology resources and tools and specific hands-on information to help you create effective communications to reach and engage your audience. The conference is designed for nonprofit leaders and practitioners at any level of experience.
The speakers and the sessions look awesome. I've been following around Holly Ross, executive director of NTEN, on the conference circuit and Holly will be here too. She is leading a session called "Technology Leadership for the Technically Challenged." There's a session on different types of social network sites called "Why I Hate Facebook" by Peter Fleck from the University of Minnesota Extension Family Development
There's a session called Digital Youth and Analog Adults that looks interesting, lead by Graham Hartley that I hope to live blog or tweet. There's also a session called "Conversation Marketing: New Media Communication Strategy" by consultants at Tunheim Partners. The description sounds like a great compliment to the session I'm facilitating in the next time slot using the Social Media Game. My session will consist of small group work where participants can take some of their learnings about Social Media from throughout the day, have a conversation with their peers, and begin to think about putting it into practice.
Hi Beth - I've lost track at this point. I'm not sure who is stalking who at all these conferences! :)
