It may be Black Friday, but we won’t be taking this week off — you can listen to the Core Conversation podcast as usual at 11:30 a.m. on Friday. And since many of our listeners will be home from work recovering from turkey-induced exhaustion, what better day to call in and participate in the broadcast? [...] [...more]
In true Feedback Friday style, this week’s Core Conversation podcast will be a discussion on the recent BarCamp Memphis and we want your comments. After any event like this it’s good to step back, take stock and look at what went right, what could’ve gone better and what we should ditch altogether. We call it [...] [...more]
We welcomed local daddy blogger (who finds the label terribly limiting) Buck Rogers to the studio for this week’s Social Expedition podcast — though perhaps we shouldn’t be so quick to label him as just that. Buck talked to us about exploring new territories with his blog, including a lengthy discussion about the pros and [...] [...more]
Since its launch in March of this year, MemphisConnect.com has been viewed by people in more than 1,300 cities across the globe. It’s an impressive figure, and even more so when you consider that 50 percent of those 1,300 are municipalities outside the region. So instead of the Forbes Most Miserable list, those thousands of [...] [...more]
In the fourth installment of The Social Expedition Podcast, we talked with Elizabeth Lemmonds (who happens to be the speaker at next week’s breakfast) about community blogging, promoting our city and how sites like MemphisConnect.com are contributing to the conversation. It’s a fitting time to be on this topic with the launch this week of [...] [...more]
The time flies when you’re having fun, because it’s already time to mark your calendars for the next Social Expedition Breakfast. If you enjoyed hearing from Lindsey Coates last month about what ArtsMemphis is up to, you’re going to want to hear what Elizabeth Lemmonds, of The Leadership Academy and Memphis Connect, has to share [...] [...more]
Feedback Friday from LunaWeb on Vimeo. Do you have one of those people on your Twitter feed who only ever tweets about having a bad day? Or stuff going wrong? Or maybe one of those people whose every tweet is a hardly legible string of @ symbols and Twitter handles and long, unruly hyperlinks? Or [...] [...more]
The first time Lindsey Coates’ wheels started spinning on arts and iPhone applications, she was sitting at a Social Expedition breakfast listening to a presentation from Resolute Games. Now, that seed of an idea is a bona fide app — it’s been live for less than two weeks and ArtsMemphis is already etching out a [...] [...more]
You can doodle and paint. You can figure out the name of that mystery song on the radio. You can even auto-tune yourself, all with the click of an iPhone app. Since the launch of the iPhone in 2007, “there’s an app for that” has become the buzz phrase for just about any functionality you [...] [...more]
If you’ve ever gotten a wedding invitation on Facebook or kept up with your kids by reading tweets from their teachers, you’re part of the movement. And at SocialCamp Memphis Sept. 19 at the Memphis Academy of Science and Engineering, we met the people leading it. The second “un-conference” of its kind in Memphis, SocialCamp [...] [...more]
