Robin,

Perhaps how to position yourself well on Digg. Perhaps everyone in the group could help each other get their stuff Dugg? Just a thought.

[Jesse Wilkins]

Off the top of my head,
101, e.g. Digg 101, Facebook 101
Getting buy-in for social media/networking/etc.:
- Corporate buy-in
- User buy-in
How to manage effectively, e.g. operational issues, compliance issues

[Peter Yesawich Jr.]

Robin, I would love to panel a discussion on Social Media and the economy, etc. Maybe that is a valuable topic?

[Tarable]

I would love to hear some discussion of how companies using social media prove that it's valuable to others in the company. Metrics, ROI, and proof, oh my!

[Robin Seidner]

Hey, don't forget to include suggested people to collaborate on a topic!

[Greg Olson]

There are alot of good ideas on this site.
I like the idea of a 101 on social media. Maybe this is something we can do once a month or have an online forum.
Possibly a 1/2 hour before the monthly meeting. If we come up with something we can hand out to people

Suggestions: B2C and B2B case studies using social media.
Checklists to get started
What to measure
How to sell this to the C-Level teams in companies, especially the CFO who is 62 years old and could care less if you have an iphone and thinks facebook is some coffee table book with faces in them.

[Sarah Rasmussen]

I don't have any new ideas - but I love all the ones that have been suggested!!

[Robin Seidner]

Keep them coming people, these are terrific!!

[Efrem Rodriguez]

I second the call for metrics and ROI.

Or maybe someone could chat about Yammer (if someone happens to be using it).

Maybe a discussion on how the Rocky's (maybe) pending closure will affect Denver's media landscape.

There are loads of great ideas on this page. Woooo!

[Johanna Hauck]

Need some ideas on how to get started, how companies are managing to keep everything up to date. How do we measure ROI?

Oh great now we have to prove stuff?

[Angela Berardino]

I'm doing a ton of strategic planning for social media campaigns..would love to talk about how people are tackling that since there's no template yet.
