Have you heard about Fusion 41? Ford is grabbing a handful of social media and leveraging it to promote the 2010 Ford Fusion.
I’ll give you the link to check out the contest. It is pretty cool. Go buy a 2010 Fusion, grab a few friends and have some fun. BTW, I’ll be happy to be on a team if you have the car…
While checking out some local technology meetings, I ran across one being hosted by a space called Ignition Alley. With a name like Ignition alley, I HAD to check it out.
They are a “co-working” space. While most of their members will likely be in the technology space, they aren’t limited to that. And the concept is REALLY cool. If it was closer, I might have to join.
Check out their site, and if you are inclined, follow them on Twitter @IgnitionAlley
If you weren’t there, Chris Brogan, co-author of Trust Agents recently spoke at the New Media Atlanta conference. It was excellent.
He ran through several genres of topics, and even addressed the “Back Noise” channel… by putting it on the screen for all to see. (Be aware, there is a bit of profanity, and while Chris didn’t “drop the F-bomb”, PLENTY of people on Back Noise dropped it all over the place)
Head on over to LaneBailey.info to see the video. It was a great presentation, for several reasons. To start with, he knows his stuff… but he also took a new technology that seemed to be designed to throw the presenters off of their game… and he used it to his advantage!
For those that love technology, there are some REALLY cool things coming up in the Atlanta area. For those in real estate that love technology, it is even better…
