BlogWell recap and link roundup

Posted by on November 6, 2008

Last week’s BlogWell event is now complete. Based on all the positive tweets , posts, and conversations, we’re confident we can call the event a success!

Attendees from 118 companies filled the San Jose Convention Center to hear eight companies give case studies on multiple aspects of corporate social media. Blog Council CEO also gave a talk about the importance of disclosure and an overview of the Council’s work with the Disclosure Best Practices Toolkit.

Our deepest gratitude and thanks go to those who spoke at BlogWell. All are Blog Council members, and we thank each and every one for stepping up to talk with openness and candor about how they do social media at their companies:

John Andrews, Walmart
Nick Ayres, The Home Depot

Tim Collins, Wells Fargo
Debbie Curtis-Magley, UPS
John Earnhardt, Cisco Systems
Jessica Fredrickson, Walmart

We’ll post updates in the next few days with links to presentations, video, photos, and other assorted content. In the meantime, here is a round-up of other posts from throughout the blogosphere.
