ClickZ to Host Social Media and Video Strategies Forum to Run Concurrently with SES San Jose

ClickZ Events, along with YouTube and Google, will sponsor a forum entitled Social Media and Video Strategies on August 11 at the San Jose Marriott, to run concurrently with the Search Engine Strategies San Jose 2009 conference.

This ClickZ forum consists of six sessions and an opening keynote speech. It will focus on a series of individual online marketing successes and failures as experienced by a number of companies, celebrities, and politicians, allowing attendees to learn from the decisions and mistakes showcased in each session.

The opening keynote will be given by Clay Shirky, a New Media expert, adjunct professor at New York University’s Interactive Telecommunications Program, and author of the critically acclaimed book “Here Comes Everybody: The Power of Organizing Without Organizations.” Shirky has been referred to as one of the most knowledgeable and respected speakers in the industry.

“I’m thrilled to be speaking at the Social Media and Video Strategies forum,” said Clay Shirky in a recent interview. “This forum is a great idea on the part of ClickZ and the event organizers because we’re going to address some key issues and look at interesting case studies that attendees might not find in the main SES sessions.”

The Social Media and Video Strategies forum will take place alongside the SES San Jose conference, which runs from August 10-14, 2009. Sessions include:
