- Also, exciting news! I was at ad:tech this past week and ran into a slew of ex-clickers! Firstly Doug Knopper and Jon Heller, who were walking the floor in a most mysterious way
something is brewing, i look forward to sharing the update once it’s out
- I saw Jonthan Shapiro, but he was talking to someone, I chose not to interrupt
- At the Ad Exchange party last night, it was wall-to-wall ex-clickers: Christina Kerwick (at D/L), Robert “Action” Jackson (at Turn.com) and Brian Ledoux (of Jumpstart).. recent clicker-returns like Damian McKenna and Jason Washing where there of course.

Alex Tsai spotted on United SFO to JFK
Apr 23, 2007 clicker updates
The JFK–>SFO United airline route is a popular one. Last night I (Rachael here, not Ben) was flying back from JFK to SFO on a full flight. As I settled into my last row, middle seat of the plane, I am greeted by a haunting ”I know you” flying out of a fellow DoubleClick alum’s puzzled mouth. Alex and I had crossed paths a few times at DoubleClick while I worked in sales operations administering salesforce.com (Incidentally, I knew another person on that flight from salesforce.com, a San Francisco based company. It really is a popular route). As the intros unfolded, it turns out I was geared up for a seven hour flight sitting next to Alex Tsai, former DART Sales Manager product manager. Alex left about 2.5 years ago, and has been busy ever since. Alex now lives in San Francisco and works at a start-up called imeem. Imeem is a community “where artists, fans & friends can promote their content, share their tastes, and discover new blogs, photos, music and video.” It sounds like he’s got his hands full these days, but should be making some appearances at adtech. You may run into him too if you’re there.
He works about four buildings down from the San Francisco DoubleClick office.
Hopefully we’ll have some ads on that site soon right Alex?
West Coast continues to come full circle

Can he “make marketing work better?”
Apr 19, 2007 clicker updates
I recall being a new employee in one of Jonthan Shapiro‘s straregy KS sessions, before there was KS sessions.. and he walked around the room saying over and over our vision, “we make marketing work better.” He also talked, as Chief Strategy Office, about our goals for adjacencies, etc.
Anyway, congrats to Jonathan, the new CEO of MediaWhiz!
