Globeblogging or Blogtrotting?

It’s great how networking and meeting fellow bloggers make for fantastic meetings offline.

My blogging buddy, Tim Johnson (IA) talks in a recent post about Phil Gerbyshak (WI) meeting with Liz Strauss (IL). Later this weekend, Phil is meeting up with Steve Farber (CA) and Starbucker (CT). Good stuff!

Tonight, I’ll be attending a concert of one of my favorite bloggers, Christine Kane (NC). Hopefully, Tom Vander Well (IA) can join us.

Christine will be playing tonight at the Lighthouse Cofee House in West Des Moines at 8:00 p.m. Hope to see you there.

Find Your Social Media ROI

I hear it from a lot of business owners: “Where is the ROI with all this Social Media?“ If this is a question you ask yourself, maybe we should work together a bit more. We can work together solo, or via a professional learning community. Find and increase your ROI. There is a “there” there.

    Mike, tell Christine “Hi” for me – she’s a peach. One of these days I need to meet the “Des Moines Bloggers” at your favorite hang out for some good coffee and even better conversation (and I don’t need to guess where it is!). Look forward to it. Have a great weekend.

    Mike -
    I met Liz through blogging and have managed to meet her in NY, PA, and Chicago! It’s really cool how many of us can find ways to meet – and sometimes even to work together.
    Here’s hopin’ one day I get to meet you!

    Mike – when are you and the rest of the Iowa guys coming back to Milwaukee? Seems like this is a GREAT place to meet up :)
    It is quite fun getting to meet all the people we *know* from the online world. Here’s to completing the connections!

    And the meeting in Rochester will be when? Great to see that you folks can get together and I am amazed how often that seems to be happening with some of the most active bloggers. Not sure how people coordinate that will so much on our plates – and I bet there’s a blog in that one:-) Thanks for the network motivators, Mike! Safe travels!

    SB, After seeing Phil’s pictures of you guys over at Make it Great – I’m ready for your visit to Des Moines. I know where all the Panera’s are:-)

    >Ann, It’s part of the great thing about communicating in online forms. It connects those of us miles away, in such a way, that when we do meetup it’s long lost friends rather than perfect strangers.
    I look forward to meeting with you…and Liz…and Phil…and Ellen (and many more) someday soon).
