My first purely social networking event that wasn't tied to any business activity proved a success. I enjoyed it; thinking now that I may soon be trying out other equally interesting events. Vancouver has a very active networking scene and such events, now I know, need not be daunting. In fact, as I blogged recently, it turned out truly enjoyable.
As a newcomer in a strange place, my recent experience opened my eyes about possibilities and the enriching nature of simply being open to new things. Such networking events truly made possible by social media tools such as blogs, websites, and the ease of information flow in the worldwide web, is just one way that social media enables people to connect. It certainly is an awesome way to do so.
I've also began reading blogs and have found a few blogs which mirror some of the things that interest me. I won't mention all of them (just a few) yet until I'm much more comfortable using and linking to their sites. After all, the only reason why I'm doing this is that it is an assignment for my social media course and being still a very private person, I am keeping the network lean so to speak...that is until I really get the hang of it.
