Refresh Dallas Meeting April 13, 2006

Presentation: Get Small Fast: Microbranding & Next Gen Social Media

We're way beyond the blog. Not that blogging's done. Far from it. We're just at the beginning, but already social media means much more. Look at the growth in MySpace, YouTube, podcasting. Flickr's on the cover of Newsweek; danah boyd is on with Bill O'Reilly (what? what?). We're not in Kansas anymore.

This installment of Refresh Dallas is a roundtable chat with a few local social media mavens (Brian Oberkirch, John Keehler, Jake McKee, Blake Burris). There may be a t-shirt given away to someone who says something inspiring. (T-shirts & stickers are Web 2.0 costs of entry, eh? "Our software is free. Our schwag rocks.") Let's talk.

Please RSVP, include month in title: rsvp {at} refreshdallas {dot} org

We'll provide the pizza and drinks if you provide the questions and conversation. Come early (7:00) to mingle with like-minded designers and developers, soak in a fresh presentation (7:30), and then stick around afterwards to meet up at Café Gecko (9:00).
