Chennai Social media Club's first session!


Session by Mr. Narayanan, Co-founder, 2020 media. His talk on Gartner hype cycle was interesting.

Some examples of hype were Tulips farms in 18th century Holland, Gold rush in US and FDI in China.


And according to him,Blogs are already passed peak of inflated expectation.
Video blogs,photo sharing,Twitter and Facebook are still on the rise.

Thanks to 20qbe solutions, there was a live stream of the session for those who couldn't make it.


The crowd actively participated throughout the session. He finished the session by asking a question to the audience. English speaking Indians are a mere 6 percentage of entire population (but having great purchasing power) and Social Media is still not a mass media so whether Social Media a myth or reality?


Kiruba Shankar, one of the key person behind the Club shared the Madhu Menon's Shiokstory

Next session of Social media Club is on May 1, 2010
