It all looked like a proper conference. Walking into the Kensington Olympia Conference Centre on Monday this week, I was greeted by rows of booths; filled to the brim with marketing gimmicks, compulsory LinkedIn lanyards, iPhone twiddling yuppies and an atmosphere so thick with buzzwords you could slice it with a butterknife.
The Social Media World Forum seemed like an interesting proposition: ”Shaping the future of Social Media’. I was expecting a challenging, dynamic event filled with top SocMed minds, that would provide a sandbox for new ideas.

You can run as far as you like, but you just cannot hide from Social Media.
Call it what you will; ‘socmed’, ‘invaluable tool’ or ‘waste of time’, the impact is undeniable; Social media has quite literally changed the world, and trying to ignore this revolution is futile. Futile I tell you!

I had an idea for T-shirt slogan, but you’re probably not going to appreciate it unless you’re sad enough to go to as many affiliate marketing industry events as I do. It would read:
“Every time you clear your cookies, an affiliate cries.”
