5:01 pm jeffkorhan: [Moderator] Welcome all to #engage365 weekly "water cooler" chat. What's on your minds? Facebook privacy still red hot ....you? #engage365
5:02 pm jeffkorhan: @reedstockman Back at ya. Thanks for joining. Disclosure - I'm a speaker for events - not an event pro! #engage365
5:03 pm jeffkorhan: @maddiegrant And thanks for the "lovely" remark! #engage365
5:03 pm lindydreyer: Chatting with @JeffKorhan - social media and events. #engage365
5:05 pm lindydreyer: What's your take on the FB privacy thing, @jeffkorhan? #engage365
5:06 pm jeffkorhan: @lindydreyer I've written several posts - saw it coming and don't think it can be stopped...slowed maybe. #engage365
5:08 pm jeffkorhan: @lindydreyer Here ya go..How Facebook is Creating a Social Frankenstein :) http://bit.ly/cx0DJY #engage365
5:08 pm lindydreyer: I'm a little miffed that they shared my mobile phone with FB friends. But I haven't gotten a ton of random calls yet. ;-) #engage365
5:09 pm lindydreyer: @jeffkorhan - I'll check that out. Thx. On a different note, have you ever experienced a private, registrant-only LinkedIn group? #engage365
5:10 pm jeffkorhan: @lindydreyer I was miffed when I lost my entire Info page that had evolved over several years. #engage365
5:11 pm jeffkorhan: @lindydreyer Interesting thought..yes and planning to start one. As LinkedIn becomes more social...gives FB a run for their $$ #engage365
5:12 pm lindydreyer: Might try LinkedIn group for #Buzz2010. It's three breakfasts over the course of the summer. Want to keep ppl connected in btwn. #engage365
5:14 pm stevecbriggs: FB went about it wrong, but I'm in favor of more open graph (with privacy controls) - inevitable as @jeffkorhan said #engage365
5:14 pm reedstockman: lots of lurkers today apparently:) #engage365
5:15 pm ASegar: I just unfriended the few professional contacts I had on FB. Now reserving it for family, social friends & access to a few groups #engage365
5:15 pm jeffkorhan: @lindydreyer You'll have to send me the link - can't seem to locate #buzz2010 #engage365
5:16 pm lindydreyer: http://buzz2010.org - just started telling people about it today. #engage365
5:17 pm jeffkorhan: @ASegar I've made FB friends and professional friends - seems to work alright. I unfriend anyone "selling" #engage365
5:17 pm rshonerd: Lurking... #engage365
5:18 pm jeffkorhan: @lindydreyer Is there a link there to the LinkedIn group? #engage365
5:19 pm lindydreyer: @rshonerd - Hey there! What's happening in your neck of the woods? #engage365
5:19 pm ASegar: @jeffkorhan Point is I want to minimize my use of FB when LinkedIn & Twitter are appropriate alternatives #engage365
5:19 pm jeffkorhan: @rshonerd Lots of lurkers are coming out of hiding... Welcome! #engage365
5:19 pm lindydreyer: @jeffkorhan - Nah - we haven't decided to create it yet...which is why I ask what you think of the idea. #engage365
5:20 pm jeffkorhan: @ASegar A valid approach. 4 me, most of my friends and colleagues hang out there - and there only. #engage365
5:20 pm ASegar: I like the idea of open source alternatives to FB, like Diaspora, but don't know whether they'll succeed #engage365
5:21 pm rshonerd: @lindydreyer hanging for a few minutes b4 I run off to a mtg #engage365
5:22 pm ASegar: @jeffkorhan Fair enough. FB often tells me more about the personal lives of professional contacts than I really want to know :-) #engage365
5:24 pm jeffkorhan: @ASegar Just beginning to hear a bit about Diaspora - not exp tho. You? #engage365
5:24 pm stevecbriggs: FB revolt: Facebook Exodus Planned for May 31: Will You Quit? - http://bit.ly/bsdeCq #engage365
5:25 pm jeffkorhan: @ASegar lol - you'll find this interesting: Facebook PUBLIC! seach: http://bit.ly/by0r6Z Playing hooky? #engage365
5:25 pm ASegar: @lindydreyer I run a private LinkedIn group for an association. Not much activity but it allows members 2 find each other easily. #engage365
5:27 pm jeffkorhan: @stevecbriggs The consensus I'm hearing is we are all hooked ... #engage365
5:27 pm ASegar: @jeffkorhan Diaspora barely implemented - idea is that you control your own info & access to it; everything's encrypted #engage365
5:28 pm jeffkorhan: @ASegar @lindydreyer As a speaker I love LinkedIn groups - lets me get to know the members and build a better speech #engage365
5:29 pm stevecbriggs: @jeffkorhan Yes - the Mashable poll has 54% not quitting, 17% quitting, 29% unsure #engage365
5:29 pm jeffkorhan: @ASegar Interesting - it may come to that. It really may for some. #engage365
5:29 pm ASegar: @jeffkorhan I've been reading too many depressing article like this recently. FB has lost my trust, probably permanently. #engage365
5:30 pm reedstockman: where would my mafia be without me:) #engage365
5:30 pm jeffkorhan: @stevecbriggs 80/20 rule works every time! #engage365
5:31 pm jeffkorhan: @ASegar The tech community esp enraged because Mr Z should be one of them - but won't play ball. #engage365
5:32 pm ASegar: Nice idea! RT @jeffkorhan: As a speaker I love LinkedIn groups - lets me get to know the members and build a better speech #engage365
5:33 pm reedstockman: looking forward to exploring blerts http://www.prweb.com/releases/2010/04/prweb3850154.htm so have time for more early adopt #engage365
5:33 pm ASegar: @jeffkorhan It's more than not playing ball. A pattern of changing the rules unilaterally for the worse => no trust #engage365
5:33 pm jeffkorhan: [Moderator] 2nd topic. Many assoc becoming content aggregators to share relevant info w/members. Ideas? Concerns? #engage365
5:35 pm KariRippetoe: Hi everyone - jumping in to #engage365 chat...
5:35 pm reedstockman: Gated access to aggregated content will present challenges #engage365
5:35 pm lindydreyer: @reedstockman - Have you tried Blerts yet? It's a great idea. I'm looking forward to doing more with it, too. @theportnetwork #engage365
5:36 pm KariRippetoe: RT @jeffkorhan: 2nd topic. Many assoc becoming content aggregators to share relevant info w/members. Ideas? Concerns? #engage365
5:37 pm ltwhite: Multi-tasking. Listening to Charlene Li's Open Leadership webinar & checking #engage365. Some similarities
5:37 pm jeffkorhan: @reedstockman Can you have gated content that is linked to outside sources like blogs? One assoc said that's how they will do it #engage365
5:38 pm KariRippetoe: #engage365 Topic 2: I think it's what they need to do to stay relevant; but need to balance aggregated w/ original thought-leader content.
5:38 pm jeffkorhan: @KariRippetoe Thanks for joining. I still haven't tried DDutch but its on my list! #engage365
5:39 pm reedstockman: @lindydreyer should soonly looking fwd to Port Social http://www.afpnet.org/Audiences/NewsReleaseDetail.cfm?itemnumber=4438 #engage365
5:39 pm KariRippetoe: @jeffkorhan I haven't either - on my list too! #engage365
5:40 pm steve_campbell: What's this chat about? When I see the word engage I am instantly interested. lol #engage365
5:41 pm jeffkorhan: @lindydreyer @reedstockman How does Blerts differ from others. I think my CRM does some of this, esp w/Rapportive #engage365
5:42 pm reedstockman: AgreeRT @KariRippetoe: #engage365 Topic 2: but need to balance aggregated w/ original thought-leader content. #engage365
5:42 pm jeffkorhan: @steve_campbell Chatting social media for assoc events - been chatting FB privacy and now content aggregation by assoc #engage365
5:44 pm ASegar: Associations need to curate valuable content for their members, and allow/encourage free discussion around it #engage365
5:44 pm reedstockman: i find and deliver material daily proactively and for member queries need tools to agregate and assist in delivery multichannel #engage365
5:45 pm reedstockman: we now use tagging on topic specific blogs which seems like extra steps search of course is still challenging #engage365
5:46 pm jeffkorhan: @ASegar Curate yes - I find they go to the same places instead of digging deeper for value. #engage365
5:46 pm reedstockman: hoping blerts will help with curation #engage365
5:46 pm KariRippetoe: @lindydreyer Blerts looks very interesting. Have you tried it out yet? #engage365
5:47 pm kikilitalien: RT @lindydreyer: @reedstockman - Have you tried Blerts yet? It's a great idea. I'm looking forward to doing more with it, too. @theportnetwork #engage365
5:48 pm KariRippetoe: @reedstockman From the looks of it, I think it would definitely help with content curation. #engage365
5:48 pm lindydreyer: @KariRippetoe - Just given it a quick once over. I'd like to spend more time with it soon. #engage365
5:48 pm jeffkorhan: @reedstockman re Blerts - another $20/mo ....this stuff is starting to add up! :) #engage365
5:49 pm rshonerd: Blerts looks interesting - I want to Take the Tour #engage365
5:50 pm jeffkorhan: I wouldn't be surprised to see Google come out with a me-too of Blerts - they've got Feedburner on their side. #engage365
5:51 pm reedstockman: have only seen a brief demo hope to test drive soon #engage365
5:52 pm KariRippetoe: I'd like to know - any examples of assns who have success with content aggregation, struck balance btwn that & original content? #engage365
5:52 pm rshonerd: Took the tour - Blerts -looks like a great tool for assns community mgrs or those assn who dont yet have one #engage365
5:54 pm jeffkorhan: @KariRippetoe I'm seeing mostly member generated content. #engage365
5:54 pm reedstockman: @KariRippetoe part of my job at AFP is to do some of that showcase AFP Branded content and highlight related topical content #engage365
5:55 pm ASegar: @KariRippetoe One assoc I work with provides places for members to post relevant content - listserv, wiki, private SN site. #engage365
5:55 pm jeffkorhan: [Moderator] We're getting down to the final minutes.....anything else? #engage365
5:55 pm reedstockman: from other sources #engage365
5:56 pm ASegar: Thanks all for the heads up on Blert - didn't know about it! #engage365
5:56 pm jeffkorhan: @reedstockman I wouldn't mind taking a look at AFP if that's possible. Gotta link? #engage365
5:57 pm ASegar: And I think that's healthy RT @jeffkorhan: @KariRippetoe I'm seeing mostly member generated content. #engage365
5:57 pm rshonerd: @KariRippetoe My old Assn used yammer for staff to load in leads, then the comm mgr pushed them out to mbrs #engage365
5:58 pm jeffkorhan: @ASegar So we have SEO, SMO...will we need to start learning BEO for Blert? :) #engage365
5:59 pm KariRippetoe: @jeffkorhan @ASegar I think member-generated content is a great approach - I firmly believe your community are your best writers! #engage365
6:00 pm KariRippetoe: @reedstockman I need to take a closer look at what you're doing - sounds like you have the right balance! #engage365
6:00 pm jeffkorhan: @KariRippetoe @jeffkorhan @ASegar ..members best source of content, but may need help "writing" - an opportunity? #engage365
6:00 pm ASegar: @jeffkorhan "First, let's kill all the acronyms" #engage365
6:01 pm jeffkorhan: @ASegar lol - it would sure make my writing easier! I never know who knows so I'm always defining them. #engage365
6:02 pm ASegar: @jeffkorhan Perhaps an automatic paper, like http://paper.li/tag/Eventprofs is possible #engage365
6:04 pm KariRippetoe: @reedstockman Saw the poll on the AFP site-online giving/social media looks like it's big w/ members as a fundraising technique! #engage365
6:04 pm lindydreyer: I gotta run. Thanks y'all for another fun chat. #engage365
