Back in the blogosphere

After years of spearheading all manner of internal company communications that rarely entered the public domain, I am happy to announce that I am starting another personal blog from which to voice distinctive points of view and share one-of-a-kind expertise, plus occasional anecdotes and insights from the frontlines of work and play.

It’s been a minute since I made a name for myself in the blogosphere.

More than a decade ago, I created, maintained and promoted the @MediaBeeswax blog and other websites while employed as business development manager in the financial trade publishing industry on Wall Street.

My former blog offered an irreverent look at the digital convergence of media, entertainment and marketing with an eye on mobile innovation and futuristic technology.

Here’s a screenshot of a post from March 2011 drawing parallels between Tom Wolfe's The Painted Word and the state of the journalism-for-hire industry.

Before moving from New York to Los Angeles — where I entered the mobile gaming space and didn’t look back — I sold the URL, DigMyMix.com, an un-developed site I had been intending to build into a user-generated digital jukebox for artists and audiophiles like me to collaborate and expand on the art of the mix tape, to a marketing agency that later used it to brand an iOS app of the same name it created for a client.
