Excellent podcast. I’ve been following the development of the NMR and the social media club. From your description, I finally understood micro formats. I’ve joined the Google discussion group, and I’m ready to assist with development of the Social Media Club. I worked in association management and standards development for several years before my communications career, so hopefully I can add some organizational knowledge, too. Keep up the good work. I learn something from you every podcast.
