In the spring, I’ll be teaching an online course for Georgia Southern called Social Media for PR. One of the things I plan to incorporate into the course is video/audio from respected leaders in PR on the topic of social media — like what the students might experience if they went to a conference. There are many, many videos (and audio recordings) of conference speakers online now, but where to start?

Mitch Joel created something at his blog Six Pixels of Separation called a Pixelated Conference, where he embedded video clips from many different conferences. And that got me thinking . . .

If you were going to create a Pixelated Conference on Social Media for PR students, what would you include? Please offer your suggestions here, and I’ll share a link to what I create for my students when I get it ready.

Some suggestions I’ve heard so far:

• Seth Goden on Tribes
• Here Comes Everybody – Clay Shirky
• Twitter for Business – Laura Fitton (@pistachio)

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
