After
months of planning, prepping, stressing (and a little “monkeying”
around) it’s finally here – SharePoint Conference 2011 in Anaheim, CA,
USA.
We’re excited and we hope those of you attending this week’s sessions and activities
are too. And for those unable to join us this year, don’t worry – our
social media team will keep you updated on All Things SPC11.
Whether you will be joining us and the ever-present SharePoint Monkey
at the conference or just soaking it all in online, we want to give you
a brief overview what will be happening on the social front and how you
can participate in the conversation:
Official Social Media Channels - Make sure to check them out and “like” or follow us if you haven’t already:
Twitter Hashtags - Be sure to use the #SPC11hashtag
for all tweets, and you can add a related event hashtag as well (we’ll
be sure to let you know what they are.) Even if you aren’t attending but
want to weigh in on the conversation, keynotes or anything else
conference related, use the #SPC11 tag to be heard! Foursquare Check-In Locations - We
have set up several Foursquare check-in venues for #SPC11 and will
provided some handy “tips” for you to download when you check-in at each
marked location. The “Mayor” of each venue will receive a prize at the
conclusion of the conference (hint: It’s a seriously great prize, trust
us) J “Find the Monkey” Contests – These
fun on-site giveaways will be scheduled throughout the conference.
Attendees will be notified via Twitter (make sure to follow us!) that
the monkey is “on the move” -- the first 10 people who find him will
receive a prize and pictures will be posted of daily winners on
Facebook. Monkey Fling “Flash Mob” - Everyone
and anyone with a monkey “slingshot” toy will meet at a pre-determined
location and “fling” their screaming monkeys into the air at once – the
event will be captured on video and posted online for all to enjoy. For
attendees who don’t have a monkey from the 2009 conference, we will have
a “monkey giveaway” one hour prior to the Fling. Stay tuned to the
SharePoint social media channels for more details! “Man on the Street” Interviews - Don’t be shy, all
interested conference-goers are welcome to participate in a simple
“Q&A” style video and share your thoughts about #SPC11 on Monday,
Oct. 3 and Wednesday, Oct. 5. We’ll let you know exactly where and when
(or just look for the video cameras, they will be hard to miss.) If
you have any questions or need assistance during the conference, just
ping us via Twitter or Facebook and a member of the social media team
will be happy to help. And remember to use the #SPC11 hashtag whenever
you tweet! It’s going to be a busy and exciting week – thanks in advance for your participation and support. Let #SPC11 begin!
