I haven't seen the print edition of the Chicago Tribune today, but I'm in the online edition.
The back-story of the story is that I met Eric, the writer, at Google Lunch 2.0 a few weeks ago. He looked at my business card and said, "Whoa! Conversation Analyst, what is that?" And then an article was born. Wednesday there was an hour long photo-shoot, so I want to find the paper and see if I'm really in it.
UPDATE: Aw, thanks Hugh.
UPDATE 2: Checked my voicemail and had four calls about the article. Mom, sis and two friends. All surprised to open up the Tribune and see me staring back at them.
UPDATE 3: Okay, okay, Leah's Ego, you weren't the only person in the article. Two other folks that I know from Twitter/Blogosphere/Small world were also quoted. Jeremiah from Forrester and Deb Schultz (who is also Esther K's Blog Mother, which is like a GodMother... only Jewish and bloggy.)
I bought 4 papers, the photo is good. Your sister called to tell me and I
ran right out and bought several copies.
WOW!!! Talk about waking me up from my Thanksgiving food hangover!!! I'm
doing the best I can to shuffle through the newspaper this morning and
POOF, there you are in living color on the front of the Business section!
You look great! Neat article, they should have expanded even further. All I
can say is WOW! What a life, jet setting, cutting edge job, media starlet
Wow! Congratulations!!!!
Thanks for getting some extra copies Mom!
Congratulations Leah! It was nice to see that you highlighted the need to
integrate social media strategy as part of an overall program for clients
rather than an add-on service.
Amanda, we are seeing much more integration this year as account teams are
planning for 2008. thanks for the comment!
Hey - congrats on being front and center..too bad he made me look like
money grubbing idiot..;)
Newspapers have "print" editions now? What will they think of next :-)
Mazel tov, Leah!
Debs-I didn't think you sounded like a money grubbing idiot and I loved
your proposed title of Digital Anthropoligist.
