One of the best things about Social Media is the ability to join the conversation. This works for us in that we can participate in events that are happening anytime and anywhere regardless of location.
Bringing the outside world in and vice versa. Even if we can’t be there physically, we can be there virtually. We live stream our monthly meetings and Camps so folks all over the globe can be a part of what we are doing in San Antonio, TX.
It’s always been my vision to take the knowledge and use of the online tools to folks outside of the early adopter and geek crowd. For me, it’s a no-brainer to add the online component to any event. It’s always been my opinion, “If it’s worth having the event, it’s worth streaming.”
So you can imagine how pleased I am to be part of the team that is bringing the hot-button topic of Healthcare Reform to the online community. On Saturday, August 29th at 10am a webcast of “The Third Rail of Health Reform: Cost” will go live. From the comforts of home, you can watch the discussion as it unfolds. Even better, online participants can submit questions for morning and afternoon panelists to answer.
How awesome is that?!
Social Media is changing the way things are done. I believe the ability to have a live and virtual audience participate in an event like this is groundbreaking. I hope this is a stepping stone for how future hot-button topics are discussed.
