Social Media Strategies Conference
The Social Media Strategies Conference, in San Fransisco is coming up soon. That's their funky graphic to the left there displaying some of the top Social Media sites.

It's not super cheap, $1250 for a non-member. But, when you look at the list of speakers, it's probably worth it if you're really serious about social media.

Speaking of Conferences and Expos... Mashable has a great new list of all upcoming internet related gatherings from around the world.

Today on Twitter it seems Ed Dale is incredibly excited about new features at FriendFeed. Here's a link about FriendFeed from the Thirty Day Challenge site about how to get set up.

Ed Dale is the kind of dude you just follow into battle. He knows what he's doing. Without too much investigation - just sign up for FriendFeed and use it. Ed Dale was right on the money when he said (a LONG time ago) that Twitter would be huge and it sure is now.

The basics of FriendFeed is that it imports and aggregates your friends submissions to other Social sites. It's pretty much integrated with everything. Check out this page for more info:

Ok, so that's really tiny but you get the point. Check it out.

Qik for iPhone
Here's a video of a Jailbroken iPhone with Qik installed.

Qik allows you to do mobile streaming video and chat from your iPhone. How cool is that? Here's a new demo of Qik using Qik (ironic?). http://qik.com/video/420375

Very Cool. The frame rate looks good, but it seems that the compression makes the video a bit blurry when the phone moves. Either way, having completely portable, wireless, streaming capability is really exciting.

That's it for today.

Thanks,
