As of two days ago, over 80 people had scanned it and attached over 50 bits, everything from video to photos to comments. Good stuff. Glad you tried it out. Agree that social media to a great degree is all about a new form of PR; however content creation, direct conversation (not through an intermediary) and community participation make it a little different from old fashioned PR, which is where I started my career many years ago.

Could not attend your Milwaukee presentation but followed live tweets. So glad to hear your philosophy on how ad industry can leverage social media with ideas rooted in PR.

Having taught PR for 20 years, I think that’s how social media works or should work.
By the way, you inspired me to try Stickybits for the first time and it looks like I was the first person to scan your bar code?

Thanks again for coming to Milwaukee to inspire us all.

Edward, I’m so disappointed to have missed your presentation. The stickybits idea is a genius one, really wish i could have seen that one live. Anyway, welcome to Milwaukee, we’re happy to have you. And thanks so much for the mention here, very generous of you.

I have been to the museum in Milwaukee. It is really cool that someone cares about advertising enough to preserve its history. Hope your event went well.

Sarah:
When I get more info on the Forrester stuff will be glad to share. Sharing is good. As for the other stuff: a. how can you not want to try it and understand it. b. I am fortunate that I’ve made it my job. Thanks for reading. Appreciate the comment.

Edward, I have to say I really admire how you, as Chief Creative Officer, are so open about how you are trying all this. And how open you are about what you are learning. It is really a good leadership example for other organizations (agency and brand side). Really interested to see how your Sticky Bits trial goes.

P.S. Thanks for sharing your notes on the Forrester event re: Future of Advertising. I actually tried to attend but was one of those “gently turned away” as I don’t work for a big ad agency.

Cheers.

Edward, really looking forward to your visit and speech on Thursday. The stickybits will be a hit, I’m sure. I thought the Adweek article this week was great, and I was going to post comments, but then realized I could just wait ’til Thursday and talk in person. You’re going to love what’s going on here in “Social-Savvy Milwaukee.” Safe travels.
