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:
- Provide feedback on the previous month’s event
- 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.
