Social Media Camp Recap

Some of the fun and personalities at last week’s Social Media Camp.

This is one of the first videos I’ve ever tried to ‘edit’ and the first time I’ve used Final Cut Express. So forgive some of the choppiness.

Up The River

Albany, NY was my hometown from 1987 through the end of 1989. I worked in the New York State Assembly and took classes towards an as-still-unfinished Masters degree in Public Administration.

I loved that town and still miss it. It’s one of the oldest established cities in the US and proudly reflects it’s Dutch heritage. The State Capital building and Empire State Plaza sit proudly over the city like jewels in a crown. And it sits close enough to urban (New York, Boston, Montreal) and outdoor (the Adirondacks) recreations. The time I spent there was mostly a blur of catching bands at the QE2, studying for classes, showing up late to work and road trips to Montreal.

I’m still heavily involved in politics of the local and state variety but I really don’t get up to Albany often. So I’m really thrilled to find out that a hard core social media scene is cropping up in my old stomping grounds. Tomorrow is Capital Camp, sponsored by the NY State Senate’s CIO’s office.  And later this month is the very first Tech Valley Social Media Breakfast.

I’ll be going to the Breakfast on June 19. I only found out about Capital Camp this week so I’m too late to attend. But I’m very impressed with what the CIO’s office has come up with (NYSenate.gov should be a model for open government everywhere) and I’m looking forward to following the Twitter feed tomorrow.
