Are you using Linkedin?

Well, then you are probably American. If you are European, you probably use it if you have many American contacts. If you are more into the European market, you use Openbc. And they are not as small as you might think.

So, if you like to see what I am doing, you can go to my Linkedin Profile or my Openbc page. You might notice, that I already updated the Linkedin but will shortly do so on my Openbc account.

And it will be all English (unless they finally provided several profiles for different languages). So why is this about Lesblogs? Because Tara Hunt yesterday said that she was amazed that something like Openbc was out there and she did not know til now.

Go look outside your bubble. And for the people making this service: Make my data interchangeable, so I can reach more sites at ease - or I will concentrate on just some big ones.

  1. Such a good strong supportive anecdote I had to say bravo. “Go look outside your bubble” is exactly what I hope we are able to facilitate with BrainJams. (PS, thanks for the nice comment on the poster at flickr, did not know who you were from the flickr profile, which is another point for portable personas)

About

female. european. geek.

About Nicole Simon I love working with people and help them get successful, especially through the use of social software. Though I have been on the net for over a decade and have consulted SMB for years, I also understand the corporate side, as I have worked in a major corporation for 15 years.

If you need a name for what I do, I usually call myself a European New Media Specialist with a special interest in (micro) blogging, podcasting and second life. I also love to 'testdrive' products / concepts which is best described as Technology Implementation Analyst. Recently I have finished the German Twitter book and will specialize a bit in 2009 on this topic as well as building more bridges between communities.

You can read more about me on my Xing profile or contact me for more information.

When I do interviews (mainly pre conference podcasts I put them up here: Bloxpert so I can seperate blog / podcast talk a bit more from the stuff here.

Useful Sounds is my personal podcast, and I also have a German blog. Living in Lübeck, Germany, a European point of view comes with everything.



Why ctbk? Smooth-tongued responses are for the timid ones, and if there are no challenges, there is nothing to gain either. :)
