January 23, 2010 will bring a new and exciting social media event/convention to Virginia Beach. Social Media @ the Beach will be held at Peabody's and will feature a day packed with great information for both the social media novice and expert alike.
Keynote speaker Jeff Turner will headline the event. Jeff is an internationally known social media educator and we are so fortunate to have him coming from California for our event.
Of course, in the spirit of other notable social media events and conventions, we have a designated charity: Mothers Fighting for Others (MFFO).
So, mark your calendar and visit the website to register for THE social media event in Hampton Roads for 2010!
