Toby Daniels Tells Us About a Social Media Week Highlight from Beirut

All the Facebook talk aside, this week was Social Media Week, which took place in 12 cities around the world: Bogotá, Chicago, Los Angeles, Buenos Aires, Rio, Moscow, Milan, São Paolo, Vancouver, Beirut, Glasgow, and Berlin.

We spoke with founder and executive director Toby Daniels about some of the highlights for this go-round (the event takes place twice per year) and he pointed to an interesting session in Beirut, the first time that the event has taken place in the Middle East.

During a Tuesday session, a speaker from Lebanon’s ministry of communications addressed the lack of high-speed Internet in the city, saying that increased connectivity is on the way.
