Two new tools for promoting event and aggregating social media are being tested.
1. Conferize is a network of conference communities. Planners can use the system to promote their events, track social media activity, and stream content. Attendees use Conferize to find events that meet their interests, register for events, virtually participate in sessions, and network with other attendees before, during, and after the event.
2. Epilogger creates a single online destination for planners and attendees to view an event’s tweets, photos, blog posts, check-ins, and social media stats. The information is stored so people can go back after an event to see what was being said and shared.
Both have a cost involved.
