2009 Indiana Tourism Summit Wrapup – Social Tourism – Doug Karr

by Jeremy Williams on September 22nd, 2009

Doug Karr’s presentation at the 2009 Indiana Tourism Summit focused almost entirely on social media. Two recommendations Doug made during his presentation are to pick up Groundswell, by Charlene Li and Josh Bernoff (I’ve written about this excellent book here and here) and Trust Agents, by Chris Brogan. He also spoke of the amazing growth of social media and its’ business uses in the past year.
