The panelists introduce themselves and talk about how their social media strategies have changed or evolved within the last six months. Craig Engler speaks about the challenges of rebranding Syfy, and his concept of creating a ‘digital ambassador’ who finds conversations in real-time (via Twitter, Facebook, Digg, etc) and explains the reasons behind the name change. Each panelist spoke about using Twitter and Facebook, and Cynthia of The New York Times also focused on using Foursquare.
