Here’s a screenshot of a story that became popular with a whopping 235 Diggs. It was taken the night of January 28, 2008 (approximately 11PM EST): While Digg typically allowed stories to hit the front page within 80-120 votes (the latter being more rare than normal), it’s now requiring almost double the number.

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?

Industry colleagues are those I have met in person (typically in a casual atmosphere or at conferences). I needed to differentiate Digg from social media because they actually are part of a distinctive community (and as you know, I’m very passionate about Digg so it really did deserve its own category).

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.

Digg is now part of social media and will be explained in the final chart. 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. The Shout Outs Aha, you thought I’d forget about the shout outs with all that conference summary. Now why would I do that?) It takes practice!

Do they feel they’re getting their money’s worth (especially because sites like Digg and MySpace may not be)? Kevin Rose, for example, is not CEO of Digg. But we should understand the trends in the world and this is a conference to do that at because the attendees are engineers, artists, designers, and developers.

Yes, Twitter and Facebook and Digg and other niche sites cost nothing to join, making social media a relatively free marketing option. Boy, those conferences must be a lot of back-slapping and link-baiting, no? 12484 SUBSCRIBERS FOLLOWERS Lijit Search Read more about The New Community Rules Get Techipedia on your iPhone or iPod touch!
