How To Follow SMW12

Monday, February 13th, 2012

  • NEXT:

It’s time! Social Media Week has arrived. Kicking off today in 12 cities around the world with over 1000 events taking place, this February may prove to be our biggest, boldest and best SMW to date. And we want to make sure you keep up with it all- from the conversations to the events to the interactivity.

Now, you don’t have to be in Hamburg, Hong Kong, London, Miami, New York, San Francisco, Singapore, Sao Paulo, Tokyo, Toronto or DC to participate! In addition to physically attending events, join the conversation virtually!

1. SMW RealTime : You may remember it from previous versions of SMW, but you’ve never seen it like this. Powered by Nokia and presented by The Guardian, SMW RealTime has drastically evolved into a 5-page data aggregation dashboard, pulling all the real-time data from Social Media Week globally and locally. Not only does it track all official hashtags on an event, city and global level, it also looks at trends, largest contributors to the conversation, Foursquare checkins and a daily poll!

2. Twitter: The staple. We couldn’t do without it- and neither could you (Admit it). Plus, this year, there’s a little competition as to which city can generate the most online conversation. You’ll want to use these global hashtags and handles- game on.

3. Social Media Week Live: Another feature that has only gotten better with time! This year’s livestreaming is built around Livestream’s new platform- and you’re going to be impressed.

Plus, you can see all events that are slated to be streamed in advance!
