TwilightCamp is a Yay

Posted on 17 July 2009 by LunaWeb

Social Media Expedition’s TwilightCamp is no longer a new part of our regular event schedule. It has graduated to simply being a regular event. That hasn’t stopped it from being a refreshing catalyst for burgeoning relationships and ideas.

We were happy to see new faces and familiar friends at the Bronte Bistro in Davis-Kidd Bookstore this past Thursday doing exactly what Social Media is meant for… socializing.

We had a lot of good conversation about our individual Social Media “yays” and “boos” for the past few weeks. People shared their big wins with the group and some of the things that they were struggling with in the social realms. We had a lot of awesome yays from the group and by the end of the dinner, many people had helpful suggestions on how to fix some of their boos.

Here’s some of what we heard from the group:

Yays –

  • New Facebook Public Profile
  • General social well-being
  • New social opportunities
  • Fun community involvement from Social Networks
  • New Facebook widget
  • Posterous
  • A successful campaign
  • A start up realizing that Social Media is an integral part of its strategy

Boos -

  • Facebook app trouble
  • WordPress struggles
  • The Need for a Facebook Public Profile
  • Needing to learn more about social
  • Lack of motivation for blogging
  • Ignored reccomendations
  • Sleazy marketing links on Facebook walls
  • Social media regulations and policies (social buzzkills)
  • Always having LOTS to learn

Thanks to everyone who came out! We’ll see you at the breakfast on August 5th.
