Its been quite a while since I have updated the blog - but here is a quick update on work I am doing outside of my day to day project management and research - the Rocco Rossi campaign for Mayor.

Highlighting a great team effort and also a journey I have been taking learning the power of social media and integration with the web. For those interested my role is Co Chair for IT and New Media for the campaign. There are a lot of team members who deserve special credit for their involvement on the campaign but that will be at another time.

The RR campaign has achieved a significant leadership over the competitors so far see this Globe article about the power of social media. Highlights include a very large Facebook Fan following, an outstanding Google ad words campaign (Thanks Jay Aber!), and an inspired web team that has helped us get to the third iteration of the web and terrific on line fund raising from Artez amongst others
