Thank You Bub.blicio.us

Quite frankly, I think the title says it all…
I wanted to follow up on my last post about my new adventures with this update…a day later, I suddenly realized that I had left something really important out of my big announcement–the drive and the support that helped get me to become the next Bay Area Reporter for The Next Web.
As most of you probably know, I’ve been writing as much as I can recently for this cool tech blog called Bub.blicio.us, started over six years ago by one of the …

Writing The NEXT Chapter

I just want you to know that this post isn’t even possible without the generosity and help that I’ve been given by my friends and also by Brian Solis and Bub.blicio.us–thanks for helping me to dream about bigger things.
This month, I celebrate my four-year SF anniversary. I’ve had an interesting ride over the past few years and I’ve been fortunate enough to share it with many friends, old and new.  But perhaps what I’ve been most proud of is the fact that I’ve managed to find a really great job …

New Role In Life: Editor-in-Chief of a Tech Blog Called Bub.blicio.us

Many of you know that for the past couple of years, I’ve been posting a lot of my photos from tech events onto Flickr and occasionally doing some writing on this social tech blog called Bub.blicio.us. It’s been a great time for me especially since I’d love to provide more of an outlet for the events that I really enjoyed going to and being invited to attend–thank you for all the invite and care. I never thought it would be appropriate to mix my marketing insights with tech party photos …

#OccupyInternet: How SOPA Threatens To Undermine Congress’ Ability To Lead & Your Freedom

It’s somehow fitting that last night, as I was researching a bunch of articles about Texas Republican Lamar Smith’s latest attempt to stifle the freedom of speech that we have been given in the US Constitution that the blockbuster movie, Enemy of the State (starring Will Smith, Jon Voight, and Gene Hackman) aired on TV. The premise behind this movie is that a member of Congress, wants to push through a privacy bill that a Senator will not vote against, thus blocking its passage. What it would do is invade the …

HGTV’s “House Hunters” Should Have Social Tech Savvy Buyers In Episodes To Show Its Usefulness

A couple weeks ago, I stumbled upon a tweet from my friend Jim Long (@newmediajim), cameraman from NBC, who mentioned that he was watching the HGTV show House Hunters. I’ve been a fan of this show for a while – quite frankly, I love the idea of seeing people review their homes and then pick one and then see how they decorate it. It’s become so popular that they’ve spawned off a new series called House Hunters International that focuses on the international community and those who are in the …

Path Discovers Its Way To Being Useful With 2.0, But Could It Be Social Media Overload?

I’ll admit it…sometimes it takes me a while before I can really get into some form of technology. Why? Because it doesn’t make sense to me. It’s rare but I don’t know what the business’s use case will be and how it will cater to those people who are beyond the range of Silicon Valley. Is the product useful for the mainstream? I don’t know, but I’ll admit that when it does strike, it’s often one of those Eureka! moments – and that’s what I’ve found out about Path.
A social …
