sosAssociates.com is an extension of my long time social media interests -- taking it beyond the 140 280 characters. Focus areas include:
A PechaKucha Talk by Stuart O. Smith, Jr., about PechaKucha Night Cleveland
PechaKucha Talk by Stuart O. Smith, Jr. | Although Julie and I have written blog posts about PechaKucha Night Cleveland, I had never done a PechaKucha talk myself. I was extremely honored to be invited to speak at a special, first-time-ever PechaKucha Night Cleveland Past Presenters Happy Hour!

Cleveland Holidazzle & Winterfest 2016 | We want to thank PlayhouseSquare Cleveland Play House for Holidazzle, and Downtown Cleveland Alliance, Cleveland Public Library, and Cleveland Public Square for Cleveland Winterfest 2016.

Two Months Later: Mural Tour at Creative Fusion Spectacular
Creative Fusion Spectacular | When I heard that The Cleveland Foundation had arranged with Ohio City Incorporated to have their Creative Fusion Spectacular, I knew I wanted to attend to take a special tour of the finished neighborhood murals.
Akron Mini Maker Faire 2016
Akron Mini Maker Faire 2016 | The Akron Mini Maker Faire is a very impressive Maker event, and I always enjoy it. The library reported that more than 1,600 people attended!
Web Development SIG: So Long, and Thanks for all the Free Web Development Training!
Goodbye, WebSigCleveland.org! | Web Development SIG: So long, and thanks for all the free web development training! Today, November 19, 2016, the third Saturday of this month, seems like an appropriate day to formally announce that I will not be running WebSIGCleveland.org any longer.
For Freedoms: MOCA Cleveland Town Hall Discussion
For Freedoms: MOCA Cleveland Town Hall Discussion | MOCA provided a video of the full Town Hall, so I decided to gather it and other information, and create a blog post. A lot of good discussion occurred at this event, which I think is worth sharing with others.
Cleveland Mini Maker Faire 2016
Cleveland Mini Maker Faire 2016 | The 4th Annual Cleveland Mini Maker Faire took place on Saturday, November 5, 2016, and we have attended three out of the four. It was a day for creative people to share their passion with others.
PechaKucha Night Akron Volume 5 at The Bit Factory
PechaKucha Akron at The Bit Factory | We were rewarded by our attendance at PechaKucha Night Akron Volume 5 with great talks, interesting location -- The Bit Factory -- and Akron Soul Train art.
CircleTrek Walking Tour of Cleveland's University Circle
University Circle's CircleTrek Walking Tour | As we were on the CircleTrek Walking Tour of Cleveland's University Circle, we kept finding personal and family connections. This made the tour more interesting to us, as we personally related to the area's history and current developments.
Think & Drink with the Extinct: Wildlife!
Think & Drink with the Extinct: Wildlife! | The "Think & Drink" theme for the night was "Wildlife," which Stuart knew would be of special interest to Julie. It is always fun to be able to get close to the animals at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History.
Akron Art Prize 2016
Akron Art Prize 2016 | Like many of our adventures, it all started with a tweet! Thank you, Summit Artspace, for your @AkronAreaArts tweet announcing the Akron Art Prize show and finale reception.
BVU Ohio Nonprofit Technology & Communications Summit
Nonprofit Tech & Communications Summit | As a provider of free tech solutions to Cleveland and Akron area nonprofits, it seemed logical that Cleveland GiveCamp be present at BVU's first tech summit. I appreciate being BVU's guest at their Ohio Nonprofit Technology & Communications Summit!
