It’s time for another New Media Cincinnati conference call!

Background

Putting together a New Media Cincinnati event each month takes up a lot of time. People come wanting to have a good time and meet people they’ve made connections with online. Those who attend often expect for there to be some sort of structured discussion – a topic or theme.

I decided some months ago that the New Media Cincinnati Second Saturday event will be a free (no admission), community-run event. In the beginning, I was able to plan, organize, run, and do the followup for the event.  Not so anymore.

Conference calls

In May 2009 I started conducting these conference calls for anyone in the community who wanted to participate.  These calls had two main purposes:

  1. Provide feedback on the previous month’s event
  2. Set expectations and discuss the upcoming event

As the group has matured, I find I’m relying more and more on help from the community to make this event happen each month.
