Sounds of Social Media: Noise or Sweet Music?

Like the sounds of this? It’s our panel submission for SWSX Interactive 2010. The other member of my panel are: @unmarketing, @thatericalper and @Kathy_Valentine. You can vote for our panel here or by clicking the little picture on the sidebar.

Here goes…

For decades, the music industry has been about gatekeepers and untouchable “s

tars”. Today, everything is about connecting with each other and the smart few in music have realised that and embraced it.

With representation from all avenues of the industry: Media, labels, management and artists, this panel will explore the current landscape of social media in music, and where they see it.

Questions we aim to answer:

  1. Is social media a bunch of noise or sweet, sweet music?
  2. How social media is changing the way we advertise.
  3. Who is leading change in the music industry using social media.
  4. How social media is changing the way artists interact with fans.
  5. Live events & Twitter – how awesome? (karoke, concerts, television)

Who are the people on my panel, you ask?
