Geek week has officially come to an end, but the geeks in our lives will continue to stay just as they are. And it’s a good thing too, because Zappos.com will cease to exist without them.
In honor of Global Geek Week and The Society for Geek Advancement and the Summer of Social Good charity, I present to you the Geeks of Zappos.
Mashable is proud to announce the first ever Social Good Conference. The Social Good Conference, being held at the prestigious 92nd Street Y in New York City on August 28th, will be a one-day educational event celebrating the finale of the Summer of Social Good charitable campaign. The conference will feature presentations from well known and respected organizations and professionals within the space focused on the theme of “Social Media for Social Good”.
Thanks to our sponsors, Zappos and MailChimp, 100% of all ticket sales will go to our Summer of Social Good non-profit
fund!
