radian6 twebinars - a social media summer series with Chris Brogan

Twebinar Social Media Summer Series wraps up

Well, based on the comments after the final Twebinar on the subject of “Listening” it looks like everyone enjoyed it and would like to see more. With over 1400 tweets before, during and after the event we hit a new record for the series. We’ve already had a number of great posts summarizing the event which you can find here. As well, if you happened to miss the action you can catch a recording of the live and prerecorded interviews here (unfortunately we had a few audio drops during the Twebinar and they were also captured during the recording so we apologize for that.)

We certainly are glad so many participants and speakers in this series received a lot of value from it. Not only did the format deliver wonderful insights from our recorded and live speakers but it gave participants the chance to pickup and find followers with similar interests while offering the ability to continue the discussion after each event.

A big thank you goes out to our host Chris Brogan, CrossTech Media, our 30+ recorded and live social media experts, SNCR, WOMMA, all those who spread the word about the events and those who reviewed them, as well as the thousands of participants.

As for future Radian6 Twebinars, we certainly will be looking at that possibility in the new year. As for the twebinar format, we’ve already seen a number of others adopting the format which is very encouraging.

Thanks again to all.

What is a Twebinar?

A twebinar is a webinar and Twitter mash-up where conversations take place in real-time before, during and after the webinar, on Twitter.

How Does a Twebinar Work?

It’s easy. Just follow the steps below:

  1. Sign-up for a webinar on a topic that interests you.
  2. On the day of the webinar, watch the presentation from your computer and receive information visually and verbally from the presenter(s).
  3. During the webinar, a parallel conversation takes place as participants comment, ask questions, and/or discuss the webinar series on Twitter. Follow the webinar participants on Twitter and join the conversation.
  4. Gather ideas and/or resources from a community of people with interests that are similar to yours.
