When you go to a conference in Manhattan, you probably seek out hotels that you’ve also heard of. I personally learned about Roger Smith Hotel at a social media conference and was told that it’s the place to be. I first really learned about RSH at the conference we were at together, Betsy. Has it been a success?

As a side point, Google is a bigger beast and it has tens or hundreds of staff members visiting forums and moderating groups to ensure that the user experience is a good one. Spam engineer guy Matt Cutts has his own blog where he talks about his personal life and all things Google. These choices may be better for Digg in the long run.

RCCL’s own words at that conference tells the tale: Hannock noted, “The key to success in viral marketing is to subtly influence the influencers without them overtly realizing they are being influenced.” I could not say what the timing was without researching the dates of the conference. © 2006-2010 Tamar Weinberg.

Many of them (more than half) were individuals I met at search conferences, but other conferences (SXSW, events that Mashable was involved in in the capacity of host or media sponsor, and the first IZEAFest) also represented my Industry connections.

I don’t necessarily expect to meet with those folks immediately; often, these powerful relationships are formed online, and I then try to learn what I can about the blogger himself/herself and follow up, normally at a conference or industry event.

As all conferences I’ve attended, it was a great one, and by far the best part was the smallness of the conference overall which really helped the networking efforts. My favorite session by far ( sorry, Rebecca ) was the Generation Google session. Is Google loved or hated between your friends? Everyone laughs.]

I actually had a client call me out on stage once, in front of like 800 people at a conference, in an attempt to pay me a compliment. The problem has been growing for about 20 years as more and more products and services have become commoditized–and Google is the ultimate example with free search. ’ How right he was!
