Roger and I posted some photos from the event on the Facebook group called Digital Media VIP - see you there - sign into facebook.com and under the search key in digital media vip, and select join group - viola. Why not tag your own name if we haven't identified you yet?
<--The enthusiastic guy to the left is Eric Manchester from Time Warner Cable , next is Skip Pizzi from Microsoft and Lisa Amore from AmorePR, she used to work for RealNetworks and you may remember her from there.
They are smiling because they are part of the winning team of the best one hour business plan and 2 minute elevator pitch. I'ts our lunch mashup so to speak. I'll add the rest of the team when I get the photo, or Roger may post it if he has it handy. It will go on the website too.
I think this team may have had an unfair advantage since they had two expert leaders at their table rather than one, but that's how the cookie crumbles. I had to throw in that disclaimer because the other two groups were great, and Tom DesJardines put together a full ppt deck for the new business during lunch. I'm kidding, for those that don't know me.
This was part of our lunch teamwork. It's also a great way to get to know new people at a table since we mix everyone up. Tom wanted to get his business plan created and funded during lunch to come back and say that on the elevator pitch. Almost.
Eric.....Ahem, I was sitting on the timewarnercable.com website and I now know that I have to watch out for your tricky marketing folks. Upon arrival or after a few seconds, you have a video come up on homepage of course with audio. I muted the sound on the home page....then about 3 or 4 minutes later another interlude comes up and viola - sound again. (Didn't I just mute that?) I don't know whether to compliment you on the advertising technique or complain! It forced me to go back to your homepage since I was then looking at another website and had to tab back so you had me back on your website for at least a few other seconds. But, are there metrics that tell you which tab I was looking at for how long?
Jim Long from NBC also posted some pictures on Facebook from the event. Eric, there's a task for you with your name on it on the Facebook Group Digital Media VIP.
See you on the Net!
Peggy
