The 140 Characters Conference: New York City (#140conf) will be taking place April 20-21, 2010 at the 92nd Street Y. This event will be the largest worldwide gathering of people interested in the effects of the real-time Internet on both business and “we” the people.
Jeff Pulver believes that we are experiencing the first stages of a major communication revolution. What many people today refer to as “Social Media” he believes is really a primitive for a new way we will communicate in the future. In fact, the systemic effects of the advent of social media will be felt for a long time after the term “social media” is no longer trendy.
IP based communications continues to evolve and our future social networks will one day help define how people are seamlessly discovered when someone originates a call to them. Business communication methods are transforming. The advent of social communications is having a direct effect on company/client/consumer/vendor/fan relationships. It has been a quite a while since our business ecosystems have been effected so quickly and so deeply then what we have already felt and will be felt in the weeks, months and years ahead.
Delegates attending #140conf NYC will have a first had oppotunity to take in the changes underway by hearing about how the real-time internet is effecting a wide number of industries and by taking advantage of the opportunity to connect face to face with the community at large.
Jeff’s has been working on the content for the upcoming #140conf for the past few months.
