Introduction
Note: Maffin rhymes with laughin’
First, please turn off your cell phones to silent mode if you haven’t already. But feel free to tweet!
Our (first/next) speaker is one of North America’s leading experts in digital communications.
- Tod Maffin is the Chief Strategist at T-Media Strategies…
- He is the Chairman of the B.C. Institute of Technology’s Curriculum Advisory Board on Emerging Media Design and Development…
- And he speaks at more than 40 conferences around the world each year on topics from viral marketing to digital communications
During the web 1.0 days, Tod launched an artificial intelligence firm that developed technology to analyze public opinion comments posted on the Internet and aired in the media, thus providing a “mood monitor” of stocks. The company went public in 18 months.
You may recognize his voice from CBC Radio, where he was the network’s national technology columnist.
And he was one of the Internet’s first web masters — creating a site ranked 8th best in the world… beating out such heavyweights as Sony, Microsoft, and AT&T.
Please join me in welcoming Tod Maffin.
