Walmart Shareholders' Online ArenaRockfish and Walmart have launched the Shareholders' Online Arena in preparation for this week's Annual Shareholders' Meeting on Friday, June 4th. The Arena uses social media tools to allow interaction between those that are visiting Northwest Arkansas and those around the world that will be tuning in online.

Included in the Online Arena, you’ll find:

  • Twitter: Tag your tweets with #wmt2010 and see them show up in the Online Arena. Also, see tweets plotted on the interactive map.
  • Flickr: Tag photos with “wmt2010” to have them show up in the “Snapshots” section of the page.
  • Watch the video from @walmartkevin, who explains the Online Arena. His team will post videos from the event all next week.
  • foursquare: Several venues have been setup on-site as foursquare check-in locations.
  • Annual Shareholders' meeting countdown clock to the high-definition, live webcast.

 

Not only does the Online Arena help to translate the local excitement of the event to those that aren’t visiting, but also signifies an innovative use of current technology by the world’s largest employer.

Will we see you at the event or in the Online Arena?
