Expanding the Brand

The whole gist of this social networking gig is to raise the level of awareness of your BRAND on the internet.

It’s like swimming upstream most of the time, but every once in a while, you get a nod, and it feels good.

pozadzidesJohn Pozadzides is a self-made-millionaire in his 30’s who has the luxury of handing out those nods. 

He’s one of the founders of Woopra and many other Web2.0 achievements, but maybe is best known today as the author of ONE MAN’S BLOG.  (BTW, John is in Las Vegas as we speak for a PhotoShop convention).

For some unknown reason, I’ve managed to land on John’s good side, and he invited me to come onto his internet radio show: WealthNation.fm.  While I don’t think of myself as wealthy, I was honored to be part of a conversation with John and his cohorts on their show a couple of weeks ago. 

We talked about branding, and voice-acting, and entrepreneurship, and being on TV, and so forth.  You may actually enjoy listening to it….or not. 

Regardless, HERE is the link.  For all the interview is NOT…it IS another opportunity to further my brand in the matrix.

Google Wave Hits Today

google_wave_logo ‘Rather unfortunate that on the day of the launch of Google’s newest “WoW” product – Google WAVE — thousands of South Pacific Islanders are struggling to recover from a massive Tsunami generated by an 8.3 magnitude underwater earthquake.  I don’t think Google is THAT self-serving…nor are they capable of such tectonic-plate machinations.

Only 100,000 lucky (unlucky?) souls will get the chance to try this Beta release beginning today.  Twitter is aflutter with people trolling about for an invitation.  ‘Not likely that anyone who was actually picked would give up their chosen status, though.

Google is variously touted as the next-generation communication tool – a mashup of email, real-time IM’s, pictures, and threads, all in a one-interface-does-all program.

Time will tell, I suppose…and uh…I don’t suppose…er….ah… you have an invitation you’d like to fork over, do ya?
