One of the beautiful things about social media is the ability to immediately interact with and engage people. In the case of being a magazine editor, the likes of Twitter and Facebook allow me to share information with readers the second it happens. And that brings me back to the evening of February 17, 2013 in a room at the Hyatt Grand Cypress in Orlando, FL for the welcome reception of the 2013 DKI Insights show.
In the past when I went to trade shows, I would typically write a blog recapping each day of the event or the event altogether. But why bother doing that when you can microblog everything up to the second using Twitter?
Here's the highlights from last week's DKI Insights show. And just in case you're wondering, you can follow R&R @RnRMag.
