I was happy to attend this the Social Media-Changing lives conference that took place in AUB in Issam Fares Hall from 12 p.m till 9 p.m.
The significance of this conference was to address how social media is altering fields such as education, culture, economics, music and art, NGO's and the environment.Many left the conference feeling the need to start a new blog or enhance what was already there.
I happened to arrive during a panel that features five very renowned bloggers that have been influenced by social media. Whether it was about shoes, graphic design, restaurants, black lists, each blogger gave their side of the story about how social media was basically a wonderful phenomenon. What was most intriguing about the conference was the screen that displayed a constant array of tweets. Hysterically amusing, it drew my attention away from the speakers.
But by far the most amusing image was that of a panelist who arrived with a shockingly bright pink wig. Distraction galore.
