(Brad Burnham, Fred Wilson, Charlie O’Donnell)Â
After wrapping up the social media sessions at Ketchum and grabbing a burger with Amit Gupta at the Shake Shack, I walked over to the offices of Union Square Ventures and talked with Fred Wilson, Brad Burnham and Charlie O’Donnell. We talked about what blogging and social media have done for their deal flow and visibility, about some of their portfolio companies like Feedburner and delicious, and about what the new investment environment is like for the types of companies they are interested in: technology-enabled services firms.

Surely the Syndicate NYC highlight for me was getting to meet & talk with David Weinberger, our foremost philosopher of connection. David is the sharp, funny blogger at the Journal of Hyperlinked Organization (JOHO to you & me), author of Small Pieces, Loosely Joined, and, oh yeah, he helped write this little thing called the Cluetrain Manifesto. We talked about his new project, Everything Is Miscellaneous, and a bit about how Cluetrain has fared over the years.

Super stoked to be speaking at WebVisions 2006 in Portland this July. Not only are there going to be rockstar speakers I’m looking forward to talking with (like our pal Dan Cederholm, MeFi man Matt Haughey, Matt Mullenweg, Derek Powazek, Andy Baio, Tom Vander Wal and, many, many more), but it’s in Portland, a place I love. (Early bird admission is super cheap — only $125 through June 30.)
Kit Seeborg has put together a great panel: Let Go, Jump In: Community Marketing Strategies for Empowered Customers. The lineup: me, Kit, Dan Saffer of Adaptive Path, and Jeremiah Owyang, social media evangelist from Hitachi. Awesome.

I’m giving a few talks on social media at Ketchum today, thanks to an invite from my pal Jon Paul Buchmeyer. An hour long Web Ex, then a lunch chat with the brand group there. I believe David Parmet will be joining me as well.
