Did you miss a panel or want to recap from Free State Social?  Maybe you were unable to attend?  Or hey maybe this is the first time you are hearing about Free State Social.  Whatever be ther case you can now access the archives and check out what was an awesome event last month.

I covered it with some video, tweets, and just plain telling people about it and I came away with a wealth of great information and excitement.

If you actually paid to go to Free State you are good to go all you have to do is contact LJ World and they will provide you with a username and password.  If you did not attend you can purchase a pass to view the archives for $9.95

Mobile Media Club In Kansas City

So a new group is forming here in the Kansas City area called the Mobile Media Club and you can probably guess it has to do with the hot topic of the mobile web.

There is so much going on out there today when it comes to mobile from apps, to marking, to the really hot topic of location based services like gowalla and foursquare.

This looks like it is gonna be a fun group with some really fun and smart people.  I look forward to meeting monthly and discussing different topics in the area of mobile.

Another great resource when it comes to check out is mobile local social which is a local blog that covers news from not only mobile apps/services but stuff happening all over the interwebs.

Hope to see you at a meeting soon!

Free State Social : Location Based Services

Scott Raymond from Gowalla had a great discussion on one of the hottest topics out there on the interwebs in location based services at Free State Social.

I grabbed the video but missed a little of the beginning and a little at the end.  Other then that enjoy what he has to say.

Gowalla co-founder and CTO, Scott Raymond, will discuss the growing impact of location based social networks, share insights in to how they will evolve and what’s coming next, and why it’s important for your business to embrace location based technology today.

Are Violent J And John Goodman One In The Same?

There are always those sites that have no real productivity value, knowledge gathering, or can really help you in life but are just plain fun and yesterday when going through my tumblr feeds I stumbled across a new one called violentjisjohngoodman.

Basically as you can see in the pictures below the focus on the site is taking a picture of John Goodman and putting the face paint from Violent J of the Insane Clown Posse together.  Pure Awesomeness....Enjoy!

Free State Social : How To Make Your Brand Stand Out Online

One of my favorite speakers at Free State Social was Sarah Evans who spoke on How To Make Your Brand Stand Out Online.

It's busy online and everyone is competing for your attention. One out of every three online Americans update their social media statuses at least once a week. So how do you stand out or make an impression? Sarah's goal is always to share practical advice you can apply or modify. She'll share nine ways you can stand out online in a non-spammy way. Hear a personal case study to see what "Find an opportunity to showcase what you do best" looks like in action. Be ready to participate during this session...Sarah always likes to get the audience involved.

(note : i missed a little of the end when it came to question time due to my flip cam dying)

Free State Social : Local Panel

This post is my first in a couple featuring Free State Social the social media conference which took place this last week in Lawrence, KS

I was able to get video of some of the panels and I also want to share my thoughts so be on the lookout over the next few days as my stuff starts hitting the blog.

Another good place to get some good video action from the event is from t-rave who is one of my fellow vloggers/geeks.

So onto the panel.  This was a panel highlighting some of local talent from the area and there thoughts on the local scene.  You had Zena Weist, Shea Sylvia, Ramsey Mohsen, and Tony Botello.

I know I was really looking forward to hearing what Tony had to say and to meet him in person for the first time.  He was very professional and I enjoyed hearing his insight.  One thing I will say is this panel was TOO SHORT.  Maybe next year they will have a longer one or maybe a couple.

Enjoy!
