There is a LOT going on over those two days, so I was sure to take a look at the schedule to make a plan. Below are the seminars I intend to attend, and why. I won’t be live twittering or blogging during these events either,  I would rather pay attention and enjoy it. I will be sure to take notes and blog afterwards! Feel free to say hi if you see me there! 

May 21

1:30pm –  Podcasting Workshop with David Jones and Doug Walker: I don’t know if I’ll ever produce a podcast, but if this presentation is anything like Shill, it’s a must see.

2:50pm – Digital Activism with Michael Geist: This promises to be an excellent presentation. Geist’s columns are always compelling and interesting, and he definitely knows what he’s talking about.

4:10pm – It’s a toss up between  Private vs. Public or Government 2.0, from Community Participation to Co-creation. Both topics are interesting and intriguing. Any suggestions or recommendations? Let me know! Otherwise, I’ll probably make a game-time decision.

May 22

1:30pm – Measuring Social Media: I’m really looking forward to this seminar. It features, among others, Alan Chumley and KD Paine, two giants of PR and media measurement. I’m highly interested in measurement, so this seminar promises to be one of the highlights of Mesh. It was just announced that Third Tuesday will discuss “How do we measure social media” the night before Mesh, so if you don’t have your mesh tickets, you can get a preview of sorts for free. Hopefully I will be at both!

2:50pm – Building a Brand on the Web: Always a great topic for PR, especially for MarComm or agency work. Plus it has a great group of participants, including Maggie Fox of Social Media Group.

4:10pm – Reputation Monitoring and Management: Another great PR topic, one of the most important aspects of PR in my opinion.  A good finale after two days of seminars.

So there it is! My schedule for Mesh 08. If you don’t already have tickets, bad news, they’re all sold out. Is there any social media scalping going on? Hope to see you there!
