Chile, Interviews, and Life

// January 21st, 2009 // 1 Comment » // Brad's Life, Butler, House, Travel

The trip to Chile was absolutely amazing.  I had such a good time and had so much good wine. :)

You can see my ~500 pictures from the trip on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/bradjward/sets/72157612120022247/

On Monday I did an interview with the CBC (Think NPR, only for Canada) about the FacebookGate situation.  What’s FacebookGate? Get the full story on my other blog:  http://squaredpeg.com/index.php/2008/12/18/facebook-pay-attention/

The story spread all over the internet, with over 50,000 visitors to the post in a week.  It hit sites like Mashable, TechMeme, Reddit, CNET, Wired, Conde Nast, and many more.  I tried to bookmark what I could find, here are 101 websites about the story: http://delicious.com/bradjward/%232013

Here are some photos from the interview:

And here is the interview!
‘Spark’ Episode 63

The coolest thing for me was that I’m on the same episode as Seth Godin, my favorite business author. (Remember the book cover?)

Hmm…. let’s see… what else is new……………

I quit my job at Butler. :)   As of Feb 1st I’ll be working out of the house on a new startup called BlueFuego. It’s a consulting company that will help colleges and universities use the internet to market and recruit students and connect with alumni.  I’m really… REALLY excited.

2009 has been great so far.  I just got back from 9 days in Chile for an MBA class.  It was a blast. Lots of plans ofr 2009 and it’s all coming at me pretty quick.  I’ll share pictures and some more about 2009 later this week.  Gotta get unpacked and caught up on being away from work for 23 days.
