Warning: shameless self-promotion here! But hey, if you wanna #GSD, you gotta do your own PR sometimes! This week is Social Media Week in DC and I'll be on a panel discussing the visual web. This should be a good discussion because a) I'm totally addicted to Pinterest, and b) if you've been working/doing anything on the internet in the last year you've noticed it's all about the REALLY BIG PHOTOS, kinetic type videos, and  infographs! Infographs! Infographs!

We'll be discussing the democratization of creativity, social engagement, strategy and more. Come check it out :

What: Show, Don't Tell: The Rise of the Visual Web

Who: 

• Alejandra Owens, Managing Editor, AARP Blog; Social & Content Strategy
• Mitch Gelman, VP of Product for Gannett
• Mark Coatney, Director and Media Evangelist at Tumblr
• Aaron Murphy, VP and Associate Creative Director at Social@Ogivly

Where: Ogilvy Washington, 1111 19th Street, NW 10th Floor

When: Friday, February 22nd at 4pm (I may or may not be bringing a surprise for everyone...'cause if you show up to a 4pm panel, at the end of Social Media Week, on a Friday...you deserve a reward.)

Don't forget to say hi if you attend, but also follow me on Twitter where I'll be sharing links, info and lessons learned but also hit me up on LinkedIn (a collector of business cards, I am not).
