Derek Powazek Joins our Team 1

Posted by Noah Fri, 16 Nov 2007 02:41:00 GMT

Derek and I met at Zazie in Cole Valley for a late morning brunch way back in June. He didn’t know me from Adam at the time but graciously agreed to meet up since we were practically neighbors. I wanted to run OnMyList past Derek and see what what his thoughts on the website and space were. I think we had just launched a week or two earlier. After our meeting I decided it would be good to have his opinion a little more often and began exploring adding him to the advisory board. Four months later we have.

Derek has a great set of past experiences on all kinds of interesting stuff from design to communities to publishing to photography to chihuahuas (that’s a funny word to type by the way). He played key roles at Blogger, Technorati, and was the founder of user generated magazine JPG. Derek also wrote a seminal book on online communities titled, “Design for Community: The Art of Connecting Real People in Virtual Places.”

Derek joins our existing advisory board members, who I would be remiss not to mention, Jude Lange, Jim Spencer, and Jeff Wasson.
