Tiffany Weller and I made our way out of the South Bay and over to Santa Monica yesterday for some afternoon co-working at the Casa Del Mar before making our way over to the Mahalo office for the Social Media Club. While co-working Brian found out that no one had taken care of getting the drinks (besides soda) so we made our way over to Trader Joe’s to stock up:

As you can see this was vital for a good event and Tiffany was a hit:

The theme for the panel was “A Social Media Primer” and was moderated by Jackie Peters from Heavybag Media and the panel members included social media pioneer Brian Solis and local social media rock stars; Robert Richman, Michael Dorausch and Nicole Jordan.

The one question from that panel that really stood out to me was “who owns social media?” Everyone wants to know what section of a company (marketing, pr, customer service). I’m working on a post covering this and it should be posted tomorrow.

Now, the best pic of the night:

At first I thought the window cleaning guys were getting a little crazy outside but then I realized I’m in LA and it was actually the frickin earth shaking!

Unless there are serious aftershocks the optimizing will now continue
