From the monthly archives:

I had a bunch of Gmail invites land in my inbox a few weeks ago that aren’t going anywhere. If you’d like one, send me an email. One caveat: you must be in the Boston area. I’m going to have a dinner party at a restaurant in the area for my [...]

Six years ago I was part of an online community/zine of writers and designers from around the world called Swanky.org. It was a curious bunch of people that ranged in age from teens, 20s and a couple of people in their 30s. I was “old” in the group at 25. One of [...]

Rich Mackin writes letters to corporations usually about problems he has with their advertising or packaging and then posts many of them to his Live Journal page. He’s got a book, too. These letters are a mix of poetry, humor and brilliance. And the guy can really write.
In a recent letter to Gillette [...]

I had only previously seen one of the bands (Sparkola) that played at last night’s benefit for the Rock & Roll Library. I was really blown away with munk. Egads. So, so good. The bass player seemed a little sleepy but the rest of the band put on an impressive show.

I finally set up an account at Audioscrobbler’s website. So, if you’re wondering what I’m listening to whenever I’ve got iTunes running, go to my profile page and see for yourself. I showed it to someone and they said it’s like big brother for music. Except who doesn’t like sharing their music [...]

The bands include one of my favorites, Sparkola, plus munk, Count Zero and The Fly [...]

Time flies when you’re busy ignoring your websites. I didn’t quite intend to stop posting here for nearly two weeks. Oops! I’m thinking about reviving my Live Journal account that I stopped using last winter so I have somewhere to post more journalish, blathering tidbits and keep sooz.com free from those sorts of [...]

This is the website where I've documented life and work adventures since 2001. I've been working on the web pretty much since there was one: online community, web marketing, social media. Current projects of my own include Exploit Boston! and Free Agent Boston. As of January 2008 I'm back to the freelance world doing web marketing, social media and event planning consulting. In March 2008 I was the event planner for Drupalcon Boston, attended by 864 Drupal open source content management geeks from around the world. I'm currently working as a web marketing consultant at SolidWorks. The rest of the time I'm out shooting photos at Boston concerts.
