http://blog.onmylist.com/articles/2007/11/15/derek-powazek-joins-our-team en-us 40 List your pants off! <p>Derek and I met at <a href="http://www.zaziesf.com"> Zazie</a> in Cole Valley for a late morning brunch way back in June. He didn&#8217;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.</p> <p><a href="http://www.powazek.com"> Derek</a> has a great set of past experiences on all kinds of interesting stuff from design to communities to publishing to photography to chihuahuas (that&#8217;s a funny word to type by the way). He played key roles at <a href="http://www.blogger.com"> Blogger</a>, <a href="http://www.technorati.com"> Technorati</a>, and was the founder of user generated magazine <span class="caps">JPG</span>. Derek also wrote a seminal book on online communities titled, &#8220;Design for Community: The Art of Connecting Real People in Virtual Places.&#8221;</p> <p>Derek joins our existing advisory board members, who I would be remiss not to mention, Jude Lange, <a href="http://www.mediaconvergencegroup.com"> Jim Spencer</a>, and <a href="http://www.gusto.com"> Jeff Wasson</a>.</p> Thu, 15 Nov 2007 21:41:00 -0500 urn:uuid:44cf1c97-f3b0-47cc-a67b-97733cb515fc Noah http://blog.onmylist.com/articles/2007/11/15/derek-powazek-joins-our-team OML News advisory board powazek design community http://blog.onmylist.com/articles/trackback/31 That a great adviser to add to your team.
