To be honest I wasn’t sure who I was going to give props to today. As I was firing off some emails and IMs it occurred to me. Chris Winfield has been one of the most gracious, coolest people I’ve met in the industry since the first time I met him. I think we first met at SES San Jose this summer, and we’ve always grabbed a drink at every conference. Chris (and his lady) are always super nice. Maybe more importantly though, I can always fire off an email to Chris if I need a quick favor and he ALWAYS helps out. His company is without question where I would turn for social media marketing, in other words, getting on digg. I think Chris and 10e20 (coolest freaking company name ever too) have been making waves, and I expect they’ll continue. Good people.

ADD sidenote: It never ceases to amaze me how connected we are. Within a few seconds of receiving a message from one person, I can reach out and touch 10 other people in all different parts of the US/world with different mediums (IM, email, phone). It’s pretty badass when you think back to even 10 years ago when we weren’t all connected this seamlessly.
