Mark McLaren of McBuzz Communications

For some of us, WordPress can be, at times, hell. It can be frustrating, finicky, and might throw a tantrum or two. Basically, it can be like a four-year-old child. For others, it can be heavenly, like smooth sailing over calm waters of posts, plug-ins, and pages. Thankfully for those of us who experience the [...]


Shauna Causey: SMC Seattle, Jolkona, & Comcast

They say Superwoman is merely a character of non-fiction. I tend to disagree. I say she is very real and lives in West Seattle.
Among bright and passionate people in social media—or anywhere, for that matter—if Shauna Causey isn’t mentioned in the bunch, clearly you haven’t had the pleasure of meeting her. Always beaming with energy, Shauna [...]

Matthew Woodget: Microsoftie & Avid Photographer

I had the pleasure of meeting the next featured member of the Seattle social media community through Jeris Miller, a good friend of mine. His name is Matthew Woodget, and let me tell you, in getting to know him over just a couple of hours, he is seriously a brilliant dude. And when it comes to [...]


Lily Jang of Q13 Fox News & Seattle News Twitterati

There a lot of talk about how traditional media just doesn’t get social media, but for Q13’s Lily Jang, that’s not the case.
Lily loves her some Twitter. I mean, LOVES it. If you follow her tweet stream, you’d know Lily is on Twitter at all times of the day; she tweets when she’s co-anchoring Q13 [...]


FRIDAY: Caught in the #SeaTweetStream

Happy Friday, everyone!
I need to mention before we get on to the good stuff. We’ve changed the name of our Friday feature from “This Week in Seattle Social Media” to “Caught in the #SeaTweetStream” because we didn’t want to give off the impression that we are the Seattle version of Mashable. *phew*

Eric Weaver of Tribal DDB, Part-Time Ninja
