So I will have the privilege of being a guest on CNET the 404 Podcast Monday April 14th at 11AM EST with hosts Randall Bennet, Wilson Tang and Jeff Bakalar. These guys are all about Tech, Pop Culture, Music and anything that uses Technology and makes them laugh. We are going to be discussing our vision with the sites Skateboards.com , Snowboards.com and Surfboards.com as social networks and destination portals. You need listen to their interview about the Elephant that Paints and Eric Litman of WashingtonVC. I was on the floor rolling in laughter. Who would have thought such a show could exist where technology intertwines with everything around it and the experts throw darts and kudos at will. I am really looking forward to chatting these guys up and hanging out at 7am my time. Its all good, just why does everything happen on East Coast time?

Social Networking and Web 2.0

So being in charge of the most exciting web opportunity of a lifetime, its often hard to contain myself. I mean its not everyday that something that you are so passionate about it alters your daily life. I should digress, I am a surfer first and foremost. The waves rule my life and everything associated with it. If the surf is pumping my entire day is often planned around the hope of getting some waves at my favorite break. This is not a hobby or a sport to me it is my religion and spirituality. The websites I am discussing are www.skateboards.com , www.surfboards.com and www.snowboards.com . All three sports I have and continue to enjoy as frequently as my life allows. By implementing the latest technology and wrapping some new marketing around it (thanks Seth Godin) I will be bringing my fellow enthusiasts to the forefront of social networking, ecommerce channels and user generated content galore. Viral video players, branded avatars and intimate interviews and interactive chats with pros and industry big wigs are some of the things on tap for our new world. Stay tuned for updates to my life and what I am working on.
