Social Media Convention

This Friday I will be attending the FutureMidwest (http://www.futuremidwest.com/). It may sound strange, but I'm really pumped to go and learn. As I've posted before on this blog, social media is a fast-growing medium for companies to get their message and name across to people. If I can learn as much as possible about it I'm positive I can be a big contributor to a company or firm. The convention runs two days in Royal Oak. Thankfully, work is helping to defray the cost a bit and paying me to go on Friday. I have to present what I learned on Monday, which I have no problem doing.
It should also be nice going down to that area to see some close friends. We recently met up in Brighton for my birthday, but anytime with good friends is a good time.
On that note, I need to contact my old manager Jim about doing more pr work for his company. It's been a while since I've helped him out and Lord knows I could use all the experience under my belt I can gather.
