I’m starting this series of posts tagged On The Move (click to see archives) to recognize and congratulate folks who get promoted, move, or accept new exciting positions. We should congratulate the following folks:
Robert Scoble (former colleague) leaves Podtech Network to join Fast Company to start up the video network. Robert is an innovator, fantastic blogger, and media personality in one. This is a good fit for him, he’s moving to a mainstream role, gets to focus on telling stories and sharing information (rather than going to a tool company). He’ll have a few challenges of course, I expect him to reinvent his videos, while still delivering his fun, goofy, personality that we all love. Congrats to Robert, a pioneer in the industry. Rocky Barbanica (also former colleague at PodTech) will be joining Fast Company to lead the video production for the ScobleShow and whatever comes next. Rocky is a video editor and producer, and helped me publish many of my videos. Since they’re a team, we look forward to seeing how he’ll step up the production value of Robert’s work, congrats to him Mike McGrath (who’s been leading the Silicon Valley Social Media Club) announces from his blog that he’s joining social media consulting shop The Conversation Group (see the partners) John Lilly rises to a new position from COO to CEO at Mozilla Corporation. I met John at the recent brownbag I was invited to at Mozilla HQ, he was extremely engaged, knowledgeable and friendly. Best of luck to him Matt Dickman of TechnoMarketer blog fame has now become Director, Digital Marketing at Fleishman-Hillard in Cleveland, Ohio. If you enjoy my blog, you’ll also enjoy his, so I recommend you subscribe. Many PR firms are hiring social media practitioners and strategists, expect this trend to continue Chris Horne joins as senior product manager for MediaTrust’s relevance and social media technologies, press release here, submitted from the CEO of MediaTrust himself
