I know its been a while since I have graced your web browsers, or even your feed readers, but I took a little self induced break. However, I am back, most likely to all five of my readers chagrin …
My first order of business is to let you know of a great new Social Media Club DC event coming up in April, Mobile Technology: The Future Fits in the Palm of Your Hand. According to the event page
There are three things you need when you leave your house, your keys, wallet, and your mobile phone. Over the last decade the mobile phone has become indispensable, and our primary method of communication. As smart phone technology reaches higher level of adoption, it opens up a world of new opportunities including email, web, and mobile applications. It’s become more than a tool just to keep in touch, but more of a productivity tool.
Find out more about what companies are doing to optimize their web and social media products for a mobile audience. Learn about:
* Top 10 steps to thinking through a future mobile product
* How to plan for integration of mobile media into existing products
* Current trends
* Future of mobile productsPANEL
* Chris Parandian, Tin Can Communications CEO, Amplify, Founder of www.mobilediner.com (moderator)
* Chris Hopkinson, DubMeNow
* Barg Upender, Intridea
* Dave Levy, Edelman Digital Public Affairs
The panel alone is a who’s who in the local mobile and tech scene and I for one am excited to see what they have to say. Obviously mobile deveices are getting more and more powerful and playing a huge, and ever growing, role in our lives.
