Social Media Club of Cleveland - November Meeting

Join us on Tuesday, November 17 from 6-8 pm at Falls Communications, Terminal Tower, 50 Public Square, 25th Floor, Cleveland.

We’ll have two breakout sessions:

Session 1:

Staying Safe and Secure on Twitter

Twitter has recently become one of the most popular social networks in the world. With this recent rise in popularity, Twitter is becoming a haven for spammers, criminals and other nefarious people with one thing in mind...to steal the personal information of you and your friends! This presentation will talk about the current threats that Twitter faces as well as the current security issues facing the users of Twitter. However, don't fear the Twitter! We will also discuss simple ways that you can identify scams on Twitter and how to use Twitter more securely.

The discussion will be led by Tom Eston. He’s a penetration tester for local Fortune 500 financial services organization. Tom currently serves as the security assessment team lead. Tom is actively involved in the security community and focuses his research on the security of social media. He is also a security
blogger, co-host of the Security Justice and Social Media Security podcasts.

Session 2:

Social Media Trends for 2010

As you all know, social media growth continues to skyrocket. In this group discussion, we’ll examine what social media will look like in 2010. A recent Harvard Business Review article says it will “get even more popular, more mobile and more exclusive.” What does that mean for those of us in the trenches? What’s the next big platform? What additions will current platforms roll out? Will there be better ways to measure ROI? Will companies get more serious about it? We’ll thumb wrestle for the answers.

And now the most important part, FOOD:

This month’s food theme is DIPS. So bring your best cold dip, hot dip, dippy friend (just kidding) – bring a chip dip, a bread dip, cheese dip, fruit dip, any kind of dip that will wow the crowd. And alcohol is permitted.

Nice meeting. Litten did pretty good for a St. Ed's guy.

Client demands. Change of plans. Hopefully next month. Already had made the spicy bean dip too!

Comrades,
I'm recovering from a cold that's had me bogged down all weekend. I'm feeling on the mend, but still sniffling and sneezing, so rather than sharing my germs with all of you, I'm going to stay home with my soup. I hope you have a stellar meeting.

(And John, were I feeling up to par, I'd say you are totally on track about the liquid refreshments.)

should the copy be changed from "alcohol is permitted" to "alcohol is encouraged"?

Teaching tonight. See you all next month!

Re: Parking for tonight

Easiest place to park is Tower City
http://www.networkparking.net/tower/

Sometimes you can snag a street spot on Prospect.

There is also valet parking on Prospect between Tower 230 and Houlihan's.

There is also a parking garage next to Fat Fish Blue...or you can park at the Renaissance or Ritz Carlton. The surface lots near the Warehouse District are also walkable.

See everyone tonight!
