Taking SMCKC to the next level

Hey all SMCKC’ers…

It’s been amazing to see SMCKC (Social Media Club of Kansas City) continue to grow and develop since a handful of us sat down a year ago to explore the formation of the group. We are now closing in on 500 people signed up for the Ning group at SocialMediaKC.com as interest in social media has exploded.

Not sure if you're following my tweets today, but a journalist at the Star has agreed to do an article on my "social media wedding" and the Social Media Club KC. I'm going to invite him to the next meeting. Would you be interested in helping me and my wedding experiment?

My first SMCKC meeting was last week and I really enjoyed it - learned a lot and met a lot of great people! I saw that you are giving a Social Media Monitoring Tool Overview on the 22nd. If for any reason you are looking to add another company to your list, I would love for it to be Spiral16! I work at Spiral16 and we are a Social Media Monitoring Tool. We are a start-up company based in Overland Park and feel we have some things in our system that are better than others (Radian6, Social Radar, Collective Intellect, etc.). Anyway, I would love to give you an overview of our product if you would be interested. Just give me a ring or shoot me an email.

Thanks Ed and I will see you next Thursday.
