I think putting our contacts together and helping each other out with particular things is a good idea – I got some help from @PPRAdelaide and @LeapWords with Cupcake Camp which I was very thankful for..

We all know the right people to get everything done, so why not just start up an online hub with a forum and a blog that everyone can post on and get help from everyone else? Everyone knows someone they might be able to get some help from, so I am willing to help out with that, we have something similar in place for Adelaide Tweeters (http://www.adelaidetweeters.com) that I'd love to give a kick up the backside and get some posters too!

Aaaaanyway I'll stop talking now, take my feedback tonight and hopefully I'll see you guys next time. :) There's a BarCamp online discussion next week if anyone is interested too :)

I would like to give my input though on the whole thing, I think by turning the Comms Adelaide into SMC Adl might be a good idea, but the umbrella suggestion of events and any membership fees will almost definitely turn people away.

SMCADL is definitely a great idea for the keen CommsAdelaide folk who are really interested in Social Media and communications in Adelaide but as for getting the average person who is slightly interested it's much more of a stretch. :)

Let me know what you all discuss this evening and I'd love to give my feedback too :) Maybe I could catch up with a small group of you somewhere central after Christmas for a chat :)
