Community Management & TweetMeme

So today is my first day as the community manager at TweetMeme and as such I thought it would be a good opportunity to introduce myself and what I’ll be doing here over the next few months.  So here goes…

First things first I’ll be looking over the comments from our current users and identifying any key areas where the site could be drastically improved so get your suggestions into us via the forum as I’ll be looking there to see what areas are your pain points and what features we are missing that should really be there.  I’m also into making things as simple and usable as possible so if I see usability issues I’ll be picking up on them to make your job easier!

Secondly I’ll be attending The Next Web conference and will have my laptop with me so that you can see TweetMeme in action and at it’s best. :)   As such do come and find me and I’ll show you what we can do with the site!  Honestly there’s more to it than just the front page… I wonder how many of you are using the tweetmeme wordpress plugin on your sites or the buttons.  Also if you’re a developer and are interested in working with our API then do take a look at it, we are looking for feedback on this as it’s something we are hoping for developers to get really into!

And finally some random facts about me…

Background: Formerly I worked at Cardinal Health as a software engineer doing a  lot of .net programming and software development in and around this area.  I’m also the founder of the Girl Geek Dinners and that is where my community experience comes from.  I’m known for being a little unconventional in my approach to things and have a passion for mobile devices… so thanks to Nick (aka the Boss) I am now fully connected with an IPhone!  So that means you can find me on Twitter a little more often than you used to!  If you want to find me on twitter my account is @girlygeekdom and I have a couple of blogs… my group blog is GirlyGeekdom and my personal one which I’ve not put much on recently is Flirting with the Future… I thought it was a fun name for a blog!  You’ll also find me blogging here and over on the Fav.or.it blog too! And yes I will be cross posting every now and again, but hopefully not too often!
