I think an "association" channel in general would be really useful, since I searched for it and there was nothing - but there's a ton of us! Go for it, I say, and yes, they are very accommodating... :)

Thanks for the post, you help hit home how important Alltop can be.

I loved Chris' post as well. I never really thought of using Alltop as a research channel, but now it makes me think back to when you had to do research papers and there was that large magazine rack in the library, but much easier.

Also, if your industry doesn't have a channel, but you have some quality bloggers, there is a possibility to start a new channel. Getting in touch with Alltop seems to be pretty easy via Twitter. I think there is the start of an underground movement (by movement I mean me and Maggie thought it would be cool) to have an association social media channel since there are so many wonderful association people blogging about it. What do you think?
