Thanks for being part of the Cleveland Social Media Club! Whether you're just curious about social media or a veteran social media power user, You'll find social [media] people almost everywhere you turn on the internet these days—on social networks like Ning, Facebook, MySpace, and LinkedIn. There's blogs, podcasts. Photos and video sharing. We Twitter. Cleveland Social Media Club members love it and are having fun!

If you are new to social media, you may also wish to peruse our e-book, Welcome to Social Media, written and produced by members of the club.

Care to join in?

To help create connections between members please add the following social media info to your profile:

• Twitter page
• Facebook profile
• links to your blog
• email address
• LinkedIn profile
• any other social networks you participate in
• if you'd like, your phone number

George has a great example on his member page. (He made his by editing the "Your Social Media Club-Cleveland" textbox in the middle of his profile page, then moving it to the top.)

We encourage members to be social in this community by signing up with and using (at the very least) their first names. Unlike other virtual forums, we're focused on the CLE+ area, and get together for face-to-face meetings... with beer and cupcakes!

Also, it's nice to see a picture of you, so we can put a name to a face. If there's just a picture of the "gray shawdow", you all will look alike. The most of the profile questions are optional, but if you fill out the speaking experience question, we'll be using that info for the proposed speaker bureau info.

Thanks again for being part of it all!
