I say this in jest and Mike knows it. We talked earlier about the concept of social media gurus/experts/consultants/etc. (by the way, @mattgalloway has some great social media consultant jokes) and both agree when we hear these terms used in conjunction with social media it makes us cringe. Then again, maybe it makes Mike cringe because he hears it used in conjunction with… him.
Guru or not, here is what I know about Mike: he is fearless and willing to try new things, he gets social media and the concepts of building a community (he likes the Mayberry analogy) and he gets the tactical elements of social media – the tools used to make it go. Best of all, he visited Oklahoma State University’s School of Journalism and Broadcast to talk with our Social Media students about his work with NewsOk, his involvement with #okice and #okstorm, the current state of social media in journalism and some awesome advice for any student who wants a future in strategic communications or journalism.
If you enjoyed the video send Mike a tweet. You can reach him at www.twitter.com/mkokc. If you would, drop me a note as well. I can be found at www. twitter.com/billhandy
