Email design too
15 DecHere’s an email design I created back in October 2011 for Daisy Whitney for the launch of the new cover for The Mockingbirds (paperback) and a sneak peak at the cover of the sequel entitled The Rivals (currently available as a pre-order).
Love it when a logo gets used
11 DecAwesome! I designed a logo for Daisy Whitney back in 2010 and very very pleased that she has used it on her website!
Daisy, a pink logo and NAB
19 Feb
A few weeks ago Daisy Whitney asked me to come up with a logo for her involvement at the NAB (National Association of Broadcasters) Expo. Daisy is a partner in the Broadband Theater Sessions. This is a brand new exhibit area for the NAB Show:
The newest exhibit area at the NAB Show focuses on broadband-enabled TVs, online video, mobile broadband networks, platforms, set-top boxes, gaming, IP, streaming, advertising, monetization and the mavericks driving today’s media.
Exciting times for new media indeed!
I’m happy to announce that the logo is up and it looks great (although a little small).
A Naughty Accomplishment
7 JanVery happy
about this mention on Suzanne Young’s Blog. Suzanne is a young adult novelist and brilliant scientist. Not really. But she is a former middle school teacher turned zookeeper (mother). That’s all according to her bio. (hee hee)
Daisy Whitney asked me to design a T-Shirt for Suzanne’s upcoming The Naughty List young adult novel and the rest (as they say) is history.
Suzanne’s book is due out on February 4, 2010! That’s really soon, so save your pennies and buy it!!
I am tremendously honored to be part of it (even if it is like the size of a grain of sand).
Woot!
Totally Stoked!

I got an huge opportunity to do the design work for Daisy Whitney’s first eBook entitled: Keeping You and Your Content Out of Court. Get your copy at www.daisywhitney.com/ebooks. If you don’t already know, Daisy is host of This Week in Media and New Media Minute. Check her out. It’s totally worth it!
Thanks Daisy!!
A look ahead and some reflection back
19 DecI like to look back on a year; as we all do I imagine, and closely review the lessons 2008 offered me. Hopefully, I was paying attention and learned something! I hate learning something twice.
2008 brought personal and professional challenges for me but one thing remained constant – my passion for the web.
Being able to reach out to my Twitter and Facebook communities and connect with people; special people (@pbaileymtl, @tanmcg and @daisywhitney), was invaluable to me in 2008.
2009 holds many secrets (personally, I’m hoping all good) and probably even more challenges (again, good ones!). Economic volatility will undoubtedly force social media to the forefront of necessary tools in everyone’s arsenal. Being connected and staying connected will become key in 2009. Relying on your Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, MySpace, and FriendFeed communities will become a lifeline to keeping up with this fast moving world. Content will be key, as it will distinguish you from the rest. So consider it to be open season on creativity!
All I can say is Thank You for your eyes during the year and for your comments especially. It proves to me that my WordPress stats have human beings behind them. I need to know you are out there and you need to know that I appreciate the time spent with me.
Happy Holidays!
Cheers for 2009!!
Hang on it’s coming!
19 NovGreat report from Daisy Whitney – As usual! This weeks New Media Minute – check it out.
It’s clear: in order to get through these tough times, there’s a definite need to create solid content, innovate, be more efficient, be budget-savvy, connect the dots and fill in the gaps.
What’s your plan?
Why Daisy Whitney is Great!
20 AugBut most of you already know that right?
Why is this particular journalist, novelist and new media evangelist so Great? Well, she’s a real person! She’s intelligent, accessible, friendly, funny, and down-to-earth.
For those of you who might not be familiar with her, Daisy is a New Media Expert who specializes in social media, demystifies the phenomenon of web TV and specifically addresses the convergence towards the web from traditional media streams by advertisers.
If watching all those hours of YouTube, iTunes and keeping track of online advertising statistics including user generated media didn’t already keep her busy, she hosts the New Media Minute which you can subscribe to via iTunes or directly from her site DaisyWhitney.com.
Daisy also writes articles for TVWeek.com as well as her weekly column for NewTeeVee.com. You’ll find her moderating TWiM (This Week in Media) a brainchild of Alex Lindsay at PIxel Corps and an affiliated show on TWiT the network of podcasts (a.k.a. netcasts – Yes Leo I listen and religiously – I should add!).
You’ll also find her on Twitter where she’s recently started online web reviews. Daisy will, once a week at random, Tweet (on Twitter) that it’s time for submissions for weekly her review. She’ll take the first five Twitter replies and will watch and review the episodes (one from each reply) in her TVWeek blog post. Using Twitter in this innovative fashion is what I find exciting about social media. It’s all too cool for words!
One of the biggest reasons for me deciding to dedicate an entire blog post to Daisy is that (as I mentioned) she is, above all, a real person. I’ve had the opportunity to exchange many links and emails with her over the summer. I was even able to offer my online personal shopper skills for her trip to NYC back in June. She’s called me Cute on Twitter and has honored me with a shout out on TWiM.
Daisy has offered me advice when I needed it most and for that I’m extremely grateful. Daisy might not know it, but she has given me a dose of much needed confidence over the last few months. My ever growing appetite for the web and social media, not to mention my newly found commitment to the Montreal Tech community can be attributed to her encouragement and most of all her validation.
Here’s my own shout out to you: THANKS DAISY YOU ARE GREAT!
Here she is on a recent episode of Martin Sargent’s Internet Superstar:
