Social Media Club is a fledgling association of humans being organized for those interested in producing, consuming and engaging with one another through Social Media. Its membership consists of those who believe in the power of conversation - as a path to common understanding, as a gateway to knowledge, or as our Cluetrain friends have correctly posited, as the basis of markets. Social Media is conversational media in all its interactive forms including text, video and spoken words - whether face to face, over the Internet, over the airwaves or via mobile technologies such as iPods and cell phones. Social Media Club is intended to be a place where amateurs and professionals can come together to learn from one another, to understand each other and to work together on the things that make meaning in their lives - their personal passions, their professional endeavours and their noble pursuits. The Club hosts conversations and participatory conferences around the world that utilize best practices in social learning techniques that provide everyday people and practicing professionals with the knowledge they need to make the most of the tools that power the "Web 2.0" and "Social Media" Revolution. In short, it empowers people to engage with one another regardless of geographic location or ideological leanings.

For those of you wondering what's wrong with Twitter or how to fix it, here's Scoble's interview with Ev and Biz.
We had the biggest crowd ever at Social Media Phoenix tonight: almost fifty people to hear the Maricopa Partnership for the Arts present its crowdsourced web site idea for acquainting prospective Maricopa County residents with the wonders of greater Phoenix.

And there was another special guest: Buppy the Buppy, whose blog " The Personal Blog of Buppy the Puppy" is becoming a favorite in the canine blogging world.
Next month, the club will discuss mobile social media.
If you know of someone in the Phoenix area whose company specializes in mobile social media, do let @hardaway or @brianshaler know. Brian is going to be running the club this summer while I am in California. I expect to be streaming in :-)
And yes, I know the photos are sideways. I don't have iPhoto anymore since my hard drive crashed, and Image Capture seems to do something to them when I download them off the phone to make them upload to the web rotated wrong. C'est la vie:-)
