I’m Kind of a Big Deal

Recent data suggests that over half of Social Media practitioners describe themselves as introverts, but that’s definitely not me. Those who know me, know that I’ve got one of the biggest ego’s of anyone they know. Getting involved in Social Media is probably one the worst things I could have done to my nearly-unquenchable thirst for attention and recognition. But, then I would depriving all of you from the life-fulfilling experience that is me. I couldn’t do that.

Imagine the titillating thrill, when last Tuesday I realized I was involved in 2 mainstream blog posts – TechCrunch and Mashable. Oh, the joy. Paisono Carta of Mashable re-used my SummerMash Boston interview in his October 5th post describinghow PermissionTV Provides White Label Video Platform Services. I look mah-velous.

But wait – there’s more! The man, the myth, the immortal Michael Arrington of TechCrunch wrote about Jeremy Baines’ upcoming release of AlertThingy and included some screenshots of version 2’s interface. I guess Arrington described some stuff about AlertThingy, but if you look closely at the screenshot, 2nd headshot from the bottom you’ll see . . . yes, that’s right . . . I’m there. I did it – Matthew Mamet got into TechCrunch.

I am kind of a big deal. I guess I’ll go back to work now.

Dude…you’re like kinda a celebrity. Be sure to keep your panties on, nobody wants to see a crotch shot of yours show up on TMZ.
