Almost every post curated by Graphic-Exchange.com is award worthy and it makes up one of the best design collections I’ve seen on the web.

Users set up categories (known as boards) and pin images by clicking a browser plugin or bookmarklet. Unlike some visual collections, a link to [...]

First off, I’ve been promoted to the Vice President of Direct to Fan Creative and Technology at Atlantic Records. I’m managing a team of ten project managers, designers, product developers and programmers [...]

Back from Vacation
Back to regular blogging after a week on a beach at Fire Island. We found an amazing house in Fair Harbor just a few blocks off the beach (like everything on the island) and had a great time eating, reading in the sun, and playing Kadima with our housemates. After one restaurant to choose from, [...]

My Pic In Billboard Magazine
A picture of the panel I was on at NARM 2010 showed up in Billboard Magazine this week. I’ve been interviewed by Billboard before but have never seen my picture in print without knowing about it beforehand. While this may only be interesting to my friends and family, I wanted to post it here for [...]
