Jeff Pulver is putting together a conference and is looking for speakers.
So I’m putting out this “Call for Speakers” and looking for creative, out-of-the-box thinkers to come forward and pitch me about a topic they are passionate about and would like to speak about. (Practical talks are also welcome.)
What I hope to bring together is a gathering of people with a variety of backgrounds and industries and together explore the future of where things are going and what business models will be used to provide the dollar returns needed to get us there. I expect to bring together people from across the worlds of: Media / Internet / Communications / Entertainment. Something I would call a “MICE” event.
If you are interested in speaking at SocComm, and or would like to suggest a speaker, please contact me ASAP. The deadline for speaking proposals is December 5th but the first to approach me will be the first I consider for the event.
If you are interested in pitching your idea to him, do it via email.

After seeing a series of tweets from a broad range of cool men, I stumbled upon Chris Brogan’s newest site, Dadomatic. The site is a range of posts from men who are taking fatherhood seriously.
From Eric Peterson:
Children can be so inspirational. It’s neat to see how they grow and develop, and even teach adults important lessons. So, that was my toddler taught adversity lesson. Or maybe it was actually a lesson on “independence” or “perseverance” or “toughness.” At any rate, it’s another valuable lesson from a special child!
From Scott Wilder:
In the pursuit of evaluating my stewardship of time; I’ve come to the conclusion that I’ve allowed deadly toxins to invade my schedule. Toxins in the form of people and activities that impare my ability to lavish love and attention on my bride and forthcoming child.
From Joe Hage (on a subject we’re also dealing with at home):
Four-year-old Lukey got in trouble today.
Hitting at school. This after yesterday’s “pushing game” at school and the day before’s “spitting at school.”
This site gives a voice to a segment of people who rarely get to really talk about parenting. We applaud women as mothers, single mothers, females in general who blog, but when do we pat men on the back for the roles they play in our children’s lives? My husband is an amazing father, and I’m so glad to be able to show him this site and give him a way to speak out on the amazing things he does with our kids.
My only suggestion is to have the author’s names link to their home blog so when people (like me) quote this blog, we can link back to them correctly.
Thanks Chris, for giving men a community like BlogHer. To quote Martha Stewart, it’s a good thing.

Dadomatic – BlogHim?
I just got back from the Community Managers Meetup in San Francisco, which was held at the Thirsty Bear Brewery. There was only a small crowd, but I think that’s how it goes when you are just starting a new group. Rich Reader, a social media consultant, and Adam Jackson, Community Manager at Yoono (firefox extension based on your social sphere), were there. Some of the topics we discussed:
Keeping the objective in mind
– what do you want to accomplish?
Measuring Success
– Metrics, growth, engagement, etc.
Next month we’ll be discussing the tools we use to manage our community, including how we measure success (since it was an interesting topic this time). If you are a community manager and would like to join us, the group on Upcoming is Community Management Meetup. We meet once a month, somewhere in San Fran.
Likewise, if you are a business that wants to host us one month, we’d love to take this to a place with a whiteboard occasionally. Email me at robyn at sleepyblogger dot com.

No, I didn’t go to BarCamp London but I noticed that Slideshare was featuring their presos in the header. Glancing through a few of the topics, I was intrigued by the Moo API preso. It’s a great ’sharing’ preso, because I don’t really need to hear the person talking to get the bulk of the info.
I initially clicked because I love Moo, but the preso was a great way to really show off what their API does and how easy it is to get it working for you. Very cool!

I'm totally taking part. Don't worry, I'll be hard to miss. I'll be the lone republican californian on twitter making my voice heard
@Duzins is my handle.
This of course assumes the debates go on and our economy doesn't end up in the loo.

Nintendo is using YouTube in a very unique way to promote WarioLand and the Wii. As he bursts through blocks and rocks his way through tunnels, the actual page layout of the YouTube site falls apart piece by piece. Innovative, interesting but unfortunately not quite perfect.
Rules of good word of mouth marketing are simple, and they ALWAYS include a sharing feature. Normally on YouTube I can share via embed, url or email. Obviously I see why embed won’t work, but the other sharing features are important. Viral stuff spreads easier with actual mechanisms that encourage virality.
So, I grade this one at 85%. Sad, because it’s so close to 100%.

Brad Crooks took this pic of me at one of my panels on Sunday at BlogWorld Expo. I look like I’m in the Thriller video!

This is great. Even as a repub (yeah, I know, the only one in Cali) I think this is so funny! Kudos to Hugh Atkin and Alastair Corrigall who edited this altogether on YouTube. (via)
