Social Media: Evolution to Execution This panel on social media was brought together through the power of social media. Through blogs, blog comments and twitter I was able to “meet” today’s panelist. The blogosphere has some excellent thought leaders on social media and I am very thankful for today’s panelist to take time to be a part of today’s event. To continue to follow the panelist’s thought leadership views on social media check out their blogs (be sure to leave a comment) and follow their twitter feeds.
