Corporate Social Media

Blake Cahill of Visible Technologies

Do you know Blake Cahill? For a long time, I actually didn’t.
Of course, being heavily involved in the local social media community I knew of him, but surprisingly, it wasn’t until recently that I spoke with him for the very first time. How did I know of Blake? Well, to put it simply, he’s a [...]


Tac Anderson of Waggener Edstrom

Jeremiah Andrick of Logitech

  
*** Apologies about the dark video. I #blamedrewscancer. ***

 
 
The name Jeremiah Andrick first popped on my radar at BarCamp Seattle 2009 when I saw a fiery-haired man with dark-rimmed glasses standing on a bench in the lobby area of the Adobe Center. He was reading off conference center rules and normally this wouldn’t be worth [...]


Kristy Bolsinger: RealNetworks

If the Real MF (More Fun? Mildly Ferocious? Mas Fantastico?) Gnomedex After-Party is anything like it’s employees, then the Real MF Kristy is awesome. And believe me, she is.
Intelligent, witty, and real (no pun intended) are just some of the many words I would use to describe Kristy Bolsinger. As a Social Media [...]


Jenni Hogan: KIRO 7 Traffoxy Traffic Tweeter

BTF (Best Twitter Friend), Traffoxy, and perfectolicious; what do all of these words have in common? I had never heard any of them until I met Jenni Hogan.
As the KIRO 7 Traffic Anchor, Jenni’s main job is to get commuters to their destination, whether that be to work or away from it. But for all of [...]


Travis Petershagen of The Seattle Podcast Network & Microsoft Studios

If you’re like me, there’s nothing more enjoyable than listening to a great podcast on my mp3 player. Whether I’m at the gym or in my car, I love being able to listen to a podcast on just about any topic of interest, and the beauty is, there is something for everyone. Sports, marketing, science, [...]


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 [...]


Eric Weaver of Tribal DDB, Part-Time Ninja

There are people who know social media and then there are people who know social media. Eric Weaver would fall into the latter.
A long-time veteran of the online marketing world, Eric has spent a large portion of his career “teaching (companies) how to speak to and engage their audiences by using digital tools.” He’s had [...]


Marcus Schmidt: Windows Online Community Manager

Microsoft. Inevitably, when you think of that ginormous company out in Redmond, often times you can’t help but think of one of its top competitors: Apple. Why? Because the debate about which is better is such a polarizing one. Either you’re a Windows fanboy or you’re an Apple fanboy—there’s no inbetween, gray area, or sitting [...]
