Social Media Club of St. Louis kicks off this weekend
I was privileged to attend the inaugural meeting of the Social Media Club of St. Louis on Saturday. Truly, felt like I was the student at school with a bunch of folks who have been blogging, Flickr-ing, RSS’ing and whatnot for a lot longer than me — and I’m no slouch at this stuff!
There were folks representing some of the big companies in the St. Louis area — including Fleishman-Hillard, Enterprise Rent-A-Car and Martiz. There were independent bloggers and programmers, entrepreneurs (James Durbin among them) and more.
It was quite invigorating to hear so many people gathered at Kaldi’s in Kirkwood to talk about something they were all so passionate about. I’m eager to help work on the next step for the club.
Here’s some of the other notes about the meeting: Durbin’s post here. Todd Jordan’s post here.
