Andy Kaufman comments on Why Every Conference Should Use Twitter

Funny that you wrote this post because I'm presenting at RE TechSouth with Stacey Harmon on how attendees and organizers can use Twitter and other social tools to enhance a conference experience and while I was observing various conferences while doing research you stood out amongst the attendees. It's amazing to think of what's now possible that wasn't even three years ago.

Hal,

Indeed, I will be looking to see a hashtag when I attend conferences. It's great to have real-time updates on what's going on around me in places I can't physically be at. I hope this usage of the hashtag is utilized at many different conferences as it was at the Miva Merchant Conference.

Thanks for the comment Liza. I think you hit on another benefit for attendees, which is the skinny on which sessions are really worth attending. I think it's awesome that you were able to make new friends because of the hashtag as well. Now when you go to conferences you'll be looking for the hashtag as well, right?

Yes, this hashtag was great to have during the conference! This was my first conference I attended on my own and it was great to interact with someone via twitter, be able to find them, put a name to the face, and finally allow for a very easy networking opportunity. I plan on keeping in touch with many for the future!

I was also able to make use of the hashtag on deciding what breakout sessions I should stop by and/or providing feedback about ones I was able to attend. Good stuff!

Yes. There is no monetization in some human activity.

Most of my crowd wants nothing to do with this. Wants to do as little 'socialization' as possible, and justifying being here is thin. If you want to make money, 4square ain't it.

If you want to do MARKETING on social media not mesuring ROI defrauds your clients, particularly when they are anti-social trolls that want money, not friends.
