Huge attendance for Third Tuesday NB in Moncton
NB, New Brunswick, Social Media Meetup, Third Tuesday NB, Uncategorized, moncton, social media Add commentsLast week, Third Tuesday held it’s third meeting in Moncton. Dan Martell and crew did an amazing job with promoting the event and we had a whopping attendance of approx. 120 attendees. The crowd was diverse with people from IT, marketing, business, tourism, health, and entrepreneurs. I would have to say that studio 700 was a fabulous venue.
We were fortunate to have a couple of mentions in the TJ and T&T over the last couple of weeks. Although I have to admit, that I find the mix of cybersocials and Third Tuesday in one article a little odd. However, it’s good news for everyone in the IT industry that there is more involvement and participation from all fronts. I’d also like to make sure that David Alston from radian6 is credited as the co-founder of the Third Tuesday NB group. And I feel a need to qualify my old boy’s club statement from the article;) I was referring to how social media breaks down barriers like those that exist in the “old boy’s club”. That we can communicate with everyone on the same field from IT to business leaders to media moguls. Those of you participating understand how rich the collaboration is within social media.

hey Lisa…. great post, thanks for the synopsis, etc. I ended up flying to Fredericton so the Moncton stop-over didn’t happen. Looking forward to next month’s event however… cheers, cp

Good to see the beginnings of a startup scene in Atlantic Canada! Being a Dalhousie grad myself, let me know if I can help out in anyway. I’m at Google in Mountain View, CA - would love to support you all in some way.
