Like many people who blog, I try not to focus (too much) on me. I try to provide information, pointers and opinion that might be of some value. But, because my Tuesday of this week was so extraordinary, I thought I’d take the liberty of using my blog to blog about my day. Don’t worry, I plan to go back to regular programming soon.
On Tuesday, I attended my first Social Media Breakfast — this one in Cincinnati — and saw a very good presentation from ShareThis‘ Tim Shigel. So, while you can learn about the event in many other places, let me tell you how my day went — by the numbers:
1 Social Media Breakfast-Cincinnati, sponsored by GameDay Communications, and hosted by the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame
2 states I traveled in (my own of Michigan and Ohio)
5 people I talked with after Shigel’s presentation: Kevin Dugan, Mike Boehmer, Dan Lally, Kendra Ramirez and Tim from Profitability (from I think a company called Data Storage. We didn’t exchange cards, so can’t be sure on his company.)
2 introductory meetings afterward the SMB with contacts at two great Cincinnati agencies
8 hours of total driving
1 call to schedule 12/22 interview for a part-time PR gig in Northwest Ohio
3 calls and/or interviews with sources for story in the Toledo Free Press (where I’ve been doing some stringer work)
48 ounces of coffee
50+ ounces of Vitamin Water (two containers, one on drive south, one on drive north)
453.3 miles of driving, round-trip
1 fantistically amazing day full of new information, productivity and potential!
