New York, NY--Ticonderoga Ventures, Inc. announces that San Francisco Business Times will moderate a panel at the SocialDiscovery.org conference on August 6-7, 2012 in San Francisco.

 
Lindsay Riddell, reporter at the San Francisco Business Times will lead a panel on  people discovery. Riddell has been covering venture capital in Silicon Valley since 2007, as well as myriad sectors including cleantech and banking and finance.
 
Social discovery is now a leading trend in social media and social networking.  Users join specific communities based on an interest, and discover new people, places and things. Social discovery sites are experiencing higher levels of growth than traditional social networking models.
 
Some examples of social discovery sites include San Francisco Business Times, Pinterest, TheFancy, Yelp, Foursquare, Tumblr, Highlight and Weotta.  
 
Social discovery sites are also better positioned to promote products and services.  Through the mirroring the conditions of human search, users find new products and services that their social connections like and recommend.  This suggests a higher level of performance in terms of conversion and sales, something a traditional social network generally lacks.
