It seems these days that everyone needs to have their very own social media consultant at the ready and in my case many companies recently have felt the need to have me at their ready. I have been swamped with business opportunities, speaking engagements and appointments to boards and committees. My business is social media and right now I must say business is good.
The latest news that I must take time to report is that I have been appointed to the executive board of the International Blogging and New Media Association as they announce their latest re-launch. This is at the same time that Paul Chaney has been appointed President of the association. I am also joined by new executive board member Zane Safrit who was most recently CEO with Conference Calls Unlimited. The rest of the board is comprised of Rick Calvert of Blog World and New Media Expo, the trade show that is partnered with the association, and Miles Durfee the past President. The release can be read for more information.
I welcome the challenges that being on the executive board of directors will bring and I hope that I can make the IBNMA something that all blogger and people involved with new media can be proud of and be happy to be members. We will be having our annual meeting at the Blog World and New Media Expo in September on the 19-21, in Las Vegas at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Come on out to enjoy and be a part of a great organization.
Now I can finally say that I have updated my blog with information which is better to say than “A cobbler’s son has no shoes.”
[...] IBNMA Relaunches and One-by-One Media and Jim Turner Lend a Hand – One-by-One Media I have to say Jim, who serves on our board of directors, is lending more than a hand. He has been an essential charter member of the organization from its inception. It doesn’t hurt that Jim is well-known and well-regarded in the business/marketing end of the blogosphere. We could not do this without him and I appreciate his interest in the organization more than you know. [...]
