About

Why Begin the Begin? Good question.  First, I’m a huge R.E.M. fan and Begin the Begin is one of my favorite songs of theirs (along with I Believe).  Both are on the amazing CD Lifes Rich Pageant.  Buy that immediately and thank me later.

What I like about the phrase is that to me its a call to action.  It applies to startups and entrepreneurs.  It applies to marketers.  It applies to anyone that believes they can be something better but is hesitant to take that next step.  Begin the begin, people.

Who am I? I’m someone that’s fascinated with entrepreneurship, startups, technology, the Internet and specifically social networking & media.  I had been Tweeting, blogging, Google Reader’ing, del.icio.us’ing, Friend Feeding, etc., and figured I should aggregate all of that content in one place.  Hence, this blog.

For my entire story, you can check out this post.

I’m currently the President and Chief Digital Officer of Engauge.  And at Engauge, I helped create and am still very involved with the Digital Innovation Group.  In 1998 I started a digital agency in Atlanta (Spunlogic) with some friends and we were acquired by Engauge in March of 2008.

I’m founding member of the Shotput Ventures Team, a technology accelerator in Atlanta.

I’m also on the boards of Junior Achievement of Georgia and The Children’s Museum of Atlanta (Imagine IT), two AMAZING organizations.

Best,

Jeff
