Event Details

It's our first birthday! The feedback forum is a whole 1 years old! Thanks to all of the companies and attendees who've helped us get there and become new colleagues and friends. And special thanks to our guest company and our new host for this month. Now, on to business! Our guest this month is Allen Stern, Editor and founder of CenterNetworks. CenterNetworks is an industry resource covering Web 2.0 and Social Media with a heavy emphasis for NY-based companies. Content includes news, reviews, industry insights and analysis, interviews and conference coverage. Issues for discussion: * Methods to get more visibility for CenterNetworks in NYC tech scene. * Monetization ideas. * Ways to get the community more engaged on the site. * Event ideas. Our gracious host this month is Rose Tech Ventures. You MUST RSVP through the link below or you will not be able to get past the doorman. And as a very nice birthday present Rose Tech will be providing food and drink, so you need only to bring your expertise! Address: 30 East 23rd Street (Madison Ave) 7th Floor Nearest subway stops: 23rd St on the F,V (6th Ave), the R,W (Broadway) or the 6 (Park Ave). Some of New York's very own have demonstrated the value of niche online media, so please join us and share your thoughts with Allen as he attempts to join that pantheon! Jonah Keegan m: 347-813-0927 Allen Stern graduated in 1995 with a Bachelors in Accounting and went to work at a medium-sized accounting firm. He was nicknamed "Dos Man" because I handled all of the networking and computers. In the mid-90s, he made the jump to a large agency called CKS (aka MarchFirst). There, he worked on the agency's largest accounts including Citibank (built their first credit card web site!), Clinique, IBM, Wimbledon and AIG (their first web site). Absolutely loved that time as people coined me, "The CPS" which stands for "Creative Problem Solver". It was also during this time that I built (with a friend) HTMLCenter. During the early years it was considered one of the top 5 web development help sites. In 1998, he moved to Atlanta and joined Georgia-Pacific. He became responsible for the public facing web sites (about 16 or so). He moved through the ranks to become the eMarketing Manager, and completed his MBA at Georgia State University. CN began initially as a hub for my "center" sites. After we transitioned the various sites into HTMLCenter, it sat idle. I re-started CN in Sept 2006 because, frankly, it was time for a new view. My background is very diverse moving from finance to technology to marketing and that background allows me to look at Web topics with a different viewpoint. I love web analytics and site optimization and consult with a variety of clients with their Internet marketing needs.
