Social Media Week London, 1st-5th Feb 2010
Next week is Social Media Week, which will bring people together to explore the impact that social media has had on culture, business communications and society at large. It’s a global programme, with events taking place across 5 countries and 6 cities, and London has its own schedule.
In true web 2.0 style, many events are open platforms where the attendees set the agenda for discussion. There are unconferences like Media Camp London 4 where the participants suggest sessions to run, (with a possible Bracket session on using social media for effective collaborative project management). You’ll also find meetups (or ‘tweetups’ for those who connect on Twitter) where people will get together to discuss what’s relevant to them, like the ‘Twespians‘ event for those interested in the effect of social media on theatre. And on Friday 5th, at the new Centre for Creative Collaboration, there will be Tuttle Club, where freelancers, armed with their laptops, work together in the same space for a few hours, getting things done and sparking new connections.

I really enjoyed your presentation at the Social Media Mafia Media Camp London yesterday.
I was really happy to find somebody using 2.0 to create value through project facilitation.
Hope we meet again,
Jo

Hi Jo,
It was great to meet you too. Thanks for your comments about my presentation and your contribution to the discussion after. Really enjoyed your session on the werewolf game too. Let’s keep in contact as would be great to meet up again for a more detailed chat.
