M&M

Description:
Social media and virtual worlds offer two important frontiers for measuring earned engagement. In both, audiences are actively engaged as participants. This workshop will cover foundational concepts in media measurement, describe new frontiers in measuring audience engagement in social media and virtual worlds, and provide hands-on experience in using new analytical tools.

Preliminary Workshop Agenda: Workshop details are available here.
Media usage, measurement and analysis: legacy concepts, forces of change, emerging metrics for social media and virtual worlds, and the creative tension of academic and business influences.

As social networks proliferate and increase in strategic importance to marketers and advertisers, a need is growing for tools to manage, analyze, and visualize network graphs.  NodeXL is an add-in for Office 2007 that provides social network diagram and analysis tools in the context of a spreadsheet. Attendees are encouraged to bring an edge list of interest. Sample data sets will be provided.
