SocComm Summit Agenda Update
On February 10th 2009 at the 3LD Art and Technology Center in New York City, I will be producing a new summit, an event I’m calling SocComm - The Social Communications Summit. At SocComm, we will explore the state of “Social Communications”, where things are headed in the future and where the money is today and will be tomorrow.
The topics at SocComm will span across: Media / Internet / Communications / Entertainment, something I call the "MICE" space. SocComm will have a mixture of individual talks, on-stage interviews / conversations and a number of “group chat” sessions.
I am asking each of the selected speakers to address an area within the emerging Social Communications space which they are the most passionate about. My focus is on pulling together passionate people about various related topics with the intention of focusing on the passion and avoiding the situation of having someone directly pitching their company/product/application/service during their talk.
We are living in a time where our phones have become social communication devices.
Presence is quickly becoming the trigger point for communication. I grew up in an era where the dial-tone on my home phone meant something to me. Today and in the future I believe that Presence is the new Dial-tone and that more and more communication sessions will happen because of presence. The evolution of presence has huge implications for a number of industries, including: advertising, media and telecom.
It turns out that Social Communications is a pretty broad term which could mean many things to many people, and I am fine with this. What I hope to explore at my new event are the pieces of Social Communications that mean the most to my friends and their friends and together help define a new industry.
“Early Bird” registration is now open for SocComm. To register, please visit: https://secure.pulver.com/soccomm/register.html.

I have searched the net and I should say I have not come across an article like this which is so easy to understand and learn the concepts.
cheers

Hi Jeff,
I'm excited to hear about SocComm. Are there any discounted rates for nonprofits?
Thanks!

Looks like a sweet event Jeff! I am supposed to be in SF those dates but that may change & I'd get up to NYC for it. Do you still need a few more speakers?
