New Media Cincinnati Meetup Video From July 11, 2009

New Media Cincinnati July Meetup @ Yahoo! Video

This is a short on the New Media Cincinnati Meetup from July 11 at Rookwood Pub. Daniel Johnson Jr. is our emcee and chief moderator again. This was about 25 minutes of bouncing around with my little home camera so quality is so-so, but you should get the idea. As always, this is an informative meeting…always enjoy introductions and new people, and these folks have really helped me learn about Social technology and other media tools. Thanks DJ Jr. Ann L., I think I ran out of battery or tape by the time you got up…my apologies.
