I must begin by saying the January 2010’s BMPR was the loudest and most rowdy yet. Kazoos, explosive poppers, rubber bands, and 12 tweets/minute tagged with #BMPR defined the event. BMPR is a great monthly event because of you. Thank you for investing your time with us. Of course, another big thank you is in order for our speakers:
- @writeontime – Projects Coordinator at @SABizJournal & BMPR MC (internationally known AND known to rock the microphone)
- @andinarvaez – grad student, TA and social media gangsta
- @lukelibrarian – Director of library technology and historical collections at the UT Health Science Center
- @ollusaints – News and sports information officer at @OLLUnivSATX
- @drkimber – Instructional designer and digital media evangelist at @OLLUnivSATX
- Joyce Stevens – Director of Academic Technology for @NISD
For the technology-lovin’, wifi-enabled, bluetooth-using nerds and geeks in the audience, I present my CES 2010 recap.

Not sure what happened, but there was this amazing burst of energy in the room.
Yes, it was “rowdy” but in a good and positive way. The Chamber of Commerce, PRSA, and other types of professional groups should pay us a visit and see what it’s like to have a great and engaging meeting on a whole new level.
Congrats to the organizers and to Eric and his crew at the Holiday Inn.
Thanks for posting the recap, I didn’t catch everyone’s twitter names, probably due to the kazoos. It was really interesting to hear how OLLU is using social tools to keep teachers and students connected. Facebook has even become the primary form of communication in any instances. I’m interested to see if Facebook-like communication is effective for small businesses connecting with their potential customers, say through their existing CRM.
@lukelibrarian made a great point that email blasts are not effective since the blast rarely applies to the recipient. Instead, allow a person to subscribe to specific channels; that enables people to only receive content related to their interests. What a obvious and brilliant concept that every email marketer should know.
