I recently did my first ever Twitterview with Shelley Wetzel, director of the eduWEB conference.  This conference pulls together some of the best and brightest Web developers, marketers, designers and technologists serving the Higher Education market (both working in colleges and universities and serving that market).

eduWEB ConferenceLast year, InnoGage joined forces with Jadu and sponsored the Social Media at the Conference in Chicago.  The idea just kind of hit me out of the blue.  When I shared it with Shelley, she was on board immediately.  Jadu jumped in to assist and the whole thing came off beautifully.  You can read more about that HERE if you want.

Now, onto the Twitterview!  You can view the twitterview HERE (at least for the next few months) Or you can attempt to read it in the blog below….

Remember, since Twitter streams down, you have to go to the BOTTOM first and read your way up.  You’ll see that the tweets don’t always pull through in complete sequential order so you need to watch out for that too.  Enjoy the Twitterview…HEAD TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST AND START READING UPWARDS.

Hey gang!

I was honored to be recently spotlighted by the eduWEB Conference.  The eduWEB conference is an “annual, internationally recognized event for the higher education community, attracting those who are involved in online strategy, marketing and technology”

I had the privilege of speaking at the conference this past summer in Chicago.  It was at this innovative conference where the InnoGage team joined up with the great folks at Jadu to pioneer a new kind of sponsorship.  Instead of just running a table, we sponsored the social media for the event.  We hired social media consultants who were on the run during the entire conference shooting high quality images and video which were loaded to eduWEB branded Flickr and YouTube pages.  We also ran a live video feed off the conference through Ustream and pushed a lot of information through the very active Twitter back channel.

Overall it was a great success - people both at the conference and those who were unable to attend got a lot of value out of the work and we’re on the schedule to do it again next year!

Getting Creative: Sponsoring Social Media at the eduWEB Conference 2009

July 14, 2009

I love conferences.  They are a great place to network and you can learn a ton from the sessions and panels.  Not to mention they are usually in a pretty cool location.  However, most conferences have this uncomfortable vendor / patron thing going on.  The vendors sit around in their booths hoping someone will actually [...]
