Topics for open discussion will include:

Foursquare – using it for longtail search marketing and community advocacy. Also the fear(s) – both real and imagined – about using geolocation services to interact with social media.

Blogging – is it dead? Dying? If so can that trend be reversed and does it need to be? Ken Cook has published over 3000 blog posts just in the last decade but also uses open engagement as a mainstay in community building.
