Social Media Events This Week
May 20, 2008 | 4:45 pmWhat a crazy week this will be for Social Media enthusiast or Tech junkies.
To start off tonight is Third Tuesday Vancouver which will host Darren Barefoot at the Century House Restaurant & Bar on Richards Street. Darren will discuss how to get top bloggers attention in this growing market place. I’ll hopefully be attending depending on how busy work gets here.
Tomorrow night will be Launch Party 4 Vancouver at Republic on Granville Street. This will showcase some new tech start up companies as well as having a Start Up Career Fair. I might venture out to this event as I have some pals that are techies and will be attending the event. Techvibes also has some other events on their blog.
Thursday will Cossette Communications – Covergence 2008 on Granville Island. I’m registered for this event for work, but I hope to learn a few “tricks of the trade” so to speak.
Other events this week include Vidfest which celebrates digital media in Vancouver.
Last but not least, Buzzbishop broke the news first this morning to the Vancouver crowd, the Apple Store will finally be open in Pacific Centre Mall on Saturday May 24th at 10am.
I hope I haven’t forgotten any events this week. Just let me know.

gusf | May 21, 2008 | 7:37 am@Rebecca I’ll definitely try to make it to your session, though Darren might feel I’m stocking him since I’ve seen him at mostly every event he has spoken these past couple of weeks
@George glad you enjoy the post
@Raul always a pleasure running into you at events. I’m not sure about Vidfest, but as Rebecca says Convergence falls under Vidfest’s umbrella
