Sumaya Kazi delivered a great talk about the use of Social Media at Sun.
She described many different social media channels, such as wikis, forums, second life, facebook, youtube, twitter and their use by different groups at Sun.
She was very clear that Sun carefully chooses the channel and its use for a very specific business goal and then measures against it.
For the first time the CIOs/IT Executives meetup was held outside of the usual venue. This time our host was Cloudera.
Over 30 people from companies like Oracle, Microsoft, Facebook, NEC and many others showed up for the event. Christopher’s presentation has generated lots of great discussions. I hope to have a video of this talk posted shortly.

“ Loic did a great job to get me a bit more ‘up to speed’ on the newest twitter development and he sold me on seesmic. I really liked his ‘customer service’/professional guidelines which fused through his presentation and the following discussion - maybe a slice of European professionalism could help here in the US to make us all a bit more ‘relationship’ focused rather than just straight business focused ($$$). ”
“ This product will revolutionize consumer marketing. The P&G brand managment model will not work in the future. Business school courses will redone in the light of this. ”
“ Loic is a great speaker to the room and one-on-one. Educational, insightful, and bashful, his expertise in business and technology more than fulfilled what I wanted to get from the presentation. And I had fun! ”
“ The content was excellent, the environment was friendly, the meeting was well organized, and the food and wine was great ”
“ I very much enjoyed the session. I was amazed at the reach of Twitter and Seesmic. It was great to meet Loic. Thanks, Tatyana, for putting on such great events. ”
