Another hot new tech startup is doing a full demo at this month’s Schmoozd on July 29th. Ad.ly will be at the Wokcano sharing all their ad serving wizardly, so that you can learn how to monetize the valuable content you are producing in streams like Twitter, MySpace and Facebook.
Get this: Ad.ly pays you to send an ad to your followers on behalf of brands you love (like an ad unit placed inside your stream). Yeah, it’s marketing and promotions – but if you’re smart and know your audience, you can really add value to the conversation. Pretty cool.
And – heads-up to bloggers, designers and developers – if you build apps, have a website, or just your own blog, Ad.ly can help you make the money you need to keep the content flowing. Read more →
Whoa! When we started Schmoozd back at the beginning of the year, we had no idea we’d be attracting some of the best in the biz. But word has gotten out – and the SME’s we have at Schmoozd 3 are without a doubt some of the most insightful people in the industry. The latest coup? Will Ballard will be joining the already prestigious team of Tony Karrer, Erick Herring and David Subar as CTO’s hosting our TECH table.
Will is responsible for technology development across all aspects of Demand Media — from the Studio algorithm to the industry-leading social-media platform, including managing a large team of engineers responsible for the company’s software architecture, design, development and quality assurance.

It is a great pleasure to announce that our hosts for our Tech table at the upcoming Schmoozd event will be Tony Karrer, Erick Herring and David Subar. Each is a CTO of their respective companies. But the story does not end there. These CTOs are highly recognized and top notch in their fields. By them hosting the Tech table, it provides a great opportunity to chat and get to know them and for all to find out the latest in what’s happening in technology.
A Chief Technology Officer (CTO), is an executive-level position in a company or other entity whose occupant is focused on scientific and technological issues within an organization. It typically involves overseeing Research and Development (R&D) activities, and formulating long-term visions and strategies at the officer level. Source: Wikipedia (here)

At this month’s Schmoozd event on July 29th, we’re introducing a new format to add even more value for our participants. This time around, we’re having four tables hosted by SME’s (Subject Matter Experts), so you can dial in on what you want to learn, who you want to meet, and come away from the event with gained insight and contacts in hand.
Our second SME? The Los Angeles Venture Association (LAVA) is on board to host the VC/angel table. LAVA is without doubt the ‘Go To Organization for Capital Raising’ in Southern California – and will be available to share their ideas on what makes a good business and how to attract capital in a troubled financial market.
