In response to our many readers, followers, fans and friends asking us what must-go-to social media events are in store for the upcoming week, we have decided to put together a weekly blog post delivering this information to you in a nice, neat and organized fashion.

Networking has always been important, but in this day and age building relationships and contacts (both online and in person) has never been as imperative. We understand that as Social Media professionals, marketers and enthusiasts, often our tendency and comfort zone lies behind the monitor, maintaining an identity in the shape of an avatar or preceded with an ‘@’.

But there comes a time when you need to meet your online followers, fans and friends in person and put a face with a username. SCG’s compiled list of social media events will help you do just that. These gatherings are also great places to meet new contacts and possibly even learn something interesting about our ever-changing industry. At the very least you might get some decent appetizers and drinks out of it. . .

Here’s what’s going on this week in the Seattle area:
