Social Media Summit at Grammy’s
Posted on | February 1, 2010 | 1 Comment
Watching these videos, I was:
- surprised by how few people were in the audience.
- surprised why someone from CNN moderated the panel.
- surprised why no music tech folk were on the panel (ie Last.fm, Pandora, Hype Machine, Grooveshark, Spotify…)
- surprised even more why Jared Leto was there. Granted he’s in a band, it’s like putting Michael Jordan on a panel about baseball.

Anyways, I have to happy a little bit. The fact that the GRAMMY’S are acknowledging the Internet and the potential to monetize money online is a huge step in the right direction. Next year my goal is to have SoundCtrl curating this panel to make sure it’s done right!

I was actually at the panel and was also surprised by how few people were in the audience. I was also surprised that they had nobody from any music websites/services, other than Leto. Still though, in terms of social media, they had some top speakers.
I think it made sense to have Leto on the panel since he’s in an industry that’s so often mentioned in regards to the internet and social media. His new album incorporated a lot of strategies that focus on social, the community- his band really nailed it.
The moderator, Rick Sanchez, was AWFUL. It was uncomfortable how often he’d cut people off and plug his upcoming book.
