I met some really incredible people this week at the WebGrrls and Social Media Club of NYC’s holiday parties. People I had great conversations with – talking about everything from Twitter to zombies and the state of the legacy media today. I started doing a combined #FF post, but realized I met so many cool people at SMC that this post is SMC-centric. I’ll drop in some WebGrrls...

I’ve actually done #FollowFriday posts on my pinko commie hippie friends before, but there are a couple I was holding off on because they had a big new project forthcoming and I wanted to have the chance to suggest a FollowFriday for that, as well. Well, now I’m a little behind the times and their new project has already taken off: Simple Earth Media. First, the men behind it: •...

This being Thanksgiving weekend and all, I thought I’d do a Follow Friday this week on people I’m thankful to have met met solely due to Twitter.

I was tripped up by the “what are you doing?” prompt and couldn’t imagine why anyone in their right mind would care what I was doing. Hell,...

So call this my IRL Follow Friday edition. @MsLaurenRae: I met Lauren waaaaay back this summer at the 140C...

I attended an interesting conference at CUNY (that’s City University of New York) this week and got to meet some interesting folks focused on hyperlocal journalism on the web. As someone tweeted during the conference, it was nice to be around a group of journalists (old-school and new) who wanted to find solutions rather than just pointing fingers and complaining about everything. Trust me,...

This week’s post is a continuation of last week’s #FollowFriday post, as I only touched the surface on the friends, new and old, whom I met in person for the first time at Blog World Expo in Vegas a couple of weeks ago. Last week I concentrated on people I’ve known the longest but never met (with one exception). This week will be a mix of people I’ve known for a little...
