Social Media Year in Review – Victoria BC 2010

At the end of 2009, Social Media Club Victoria was 9 months old, most traditional media in Victoria did not yet have a social media presence, and the only regularly scheduled tweetup was the am #Victoriatweetup held the 2nd Thursday and 4th Wednesday of the month at Cabin 12.

Social media successes for 2009 included Twestival Victoria (September), WordCamp (November), Johnson Street Bridge.org and presentations by Raul Pacheco, Lorraine Murphy and Joe Solomon @engagejoe at Social Media Club.

2010 saw incredible growth, not only in the numbers of active users of social media, but in the offline events, groups, and meetings. The online to offline community blossomed!

Here’s a Social Media Review for Victoria BC in 2010. It’s highly subjective. Please let me know what needs to be included (and what I have forgotten) and I will revise the posts.
