International Conference on Weblogs and Social Media
If you’re looking for a Social Media conference to attend, you may want to take a look at the International Conference on Weblogs and Social Media that will be held in the Spring of 2007 in Boulder, Colorado. This academic oriented conference will address ethnographic analysis through social media, human computer interaction, unstructured knowledge management, social network analysis and visualization among other topics.
In reading the conference description, I particularly liked the phrase, “people at once act as creators, observers and influences of the space in which they participate.” Companies themselves play these roles in real time too. But alas, we do not have social media tools that capture the aggregate behavior of employees to depict how a company truly functions.
