By walking in the door and expressing the interest, they were the social media leaders in their community. Second?

Social Media Exploring In The Great White North

by · January 9, 2008

Downtown FrederictonToday I’m traveling most of the day to visit my friends at Radian6 in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada as part of a 36-hour, multi-tasking frenzy. The original purpose of the jaunt is to meet the folks at Radian6 in person, get some hands-on training with their social media measurement software and offer some feedback on the product. Of course, there are plans for videos and blog posts and even a little fun segment shooting for the Daily Idea as well.But tonight, just a couple weeks before I co-host the first-ever Social Media Club gathering in Louisville, Lisa Rousseau and David Alston of Radian6 have organized a social media gathering in Fredericton. I’m told it’s the first social media gathering in the province.
