Exciting week ahead. Today through Fri., Social Media Week New York will be taking place at different sites across the city. For those of you who aren’t familiar with the conference or haven’t caught wind of all the buzz, the second annual will feature events taking place simultaneously in cities across the globe (i.e. NYC, San Fran, Toronto, Berlin, Londo, and São Paulo). The aim of these events is to advance the use and understanding of social media in the corporate, public and non-profit sectors.

The main Social Media Week Web site describes the week-long, international conference as consisting of the following:

“The conference is designed as a series of localized events, which city partners are responsible for organizing. Over the course of the week and in each city, programs will span a variety of formats, ranging from talks, presentations and panel discussions, to interactive workshops, seminars, networking events and drinks receptions. Each event, including the live stream and backchannel conversations will be hosted on the Social Media Week Web site, allowing for participants from around the world and across multiple cities to take part in the conference.”

That being said, we’re proud to announce that Danielle Culmone, an account supervisor here at Q&C and member of our digital media team, along with a few other quinnlings, will be out and about over the next few days. We invite you to join us and if interested, be sure to check out the comprehensive schedule or follow them on Twitter for updates. Danielle will also be hosting a session at the conference’s Media Camp event on Fri. entitled, “Building an Integrated PR Strategy Using a 2010 PR Arsenal”. She’s slated to go on at 5:00 p.m. at the SAE Institute of Technology (1293 Broadway b/tw 33 & 34 St. on the 9th Fl.).
