TECHPOINT MIRA AWARDS FINALIST 2011

August 2010

I never used to be a believer in the adage that “Those who can, do, and those who can’t, teach.” I have officially Changed My Mind, and it’s all the so-called “experts” that led me to do so.

A post from the Raidious blog is currently featured on the front page of My Venture Pad. Matt’s post “Three Things I’ve Learned Working at a Startup” apparently warranted some attention.

I’m back in Indianapolis, working with a company that’s on the rise. We’ve been profiled in national publications, we’re working with national and international clients, and we’re hiring people.

My grandmother probably said it best: “If you keep mouthing off like that, a bigger boy’s going to pop you one.” Maybe I should’ve paid more heed to my grandmother; it sure seems JetBlue did.

Run, don’t walk, to your favorite local bookstore and pick up a copy of our good friend Doug Karr’s new book, “Corporate Blogging for Dummies.” Trust us, you need this book. And it’s not just because we at Raidious are in the book on pages 126 and 127 (not that we were looking or anything).

So you are now all set up on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. Awesome! Now there is a new network joining the mix, and it has quickly become one of the big ones: Foursquare. What is it? Where is going?

Sure, it’s possible to combine chat, document collaboration, email, and whatever else they crammed into that buckshot interface. But why?

No one likes the guy that talks shop 24/7. Show off who you are as a person.

We know he’ll be too humble to beat his own drum, so we’ll beat it for him. Our CEO and fearless leader Taulbee Jackson is featured in today’s Indianapolis Star, in the Rising Star column of the Business section.
