[...] EVERYWHERE, a Social Media Marketing and Content Development firm based in Atlanta, GA set a record October 16-17th for the most widespread social network message in 24 hours. According to Radian6, the official online monitoring company, the phrase #BeatCancer set the record with 209,771 mentions on Twitter, Facebook and blog posts. This translates into an estimated number of impressions generated during this 24-hour period at over 100 Million. Attendees at BlogWorld & New Media Expo, which featured some of the biggest names in social media, were asked to send tweets and issue Facebook status updates with #BeatCancer in their posts. This massive viral effort spawned a worldwide online message that spread and quickly became the #1 most trending topic on Twitter. Not content to just perpetuate a hashtag followed by a message, EVERYWHERE sought out sponsors to raise money for non-profit cancer organizations. Sponsors eBay/PayPal and MillerCoors Brewing Company and Genesis Today were financial contributors to the #BeatCancer campaign and in the brief 24 hour period, over $70,000 was raised. [...]

As a digital entrepreneur who made the leap 6 years ago, let me say that leaving a position with a rolodex and some early high-profile clientele is fine for the first 2-3 years. After that, sustaining a profitable business beyond managing hired technical staff can be challenging (and not a business floated on savings and friend-vestors). As a software engineer who later obtained business training, I have seen so many quasi-technical business principles (you know, those that can write a macro in Microsoft Excel or embed a video in Adobe Dreamweaver) launch web sites and SaaS plumbing and then sit impatiently for revenue and the black. All the time reliant upon the technical tit of IT staff to sustain infrastructure and continue to innovate (both in a hardware and software). Unfortunately, the clock ticks and pay checks need to be written.

I sincerely wish James the best in his new endeavor but as Barak says, “…we need people to invent things again!” The Chinese and Indians are not inventing around spreadsheets, MS Powerpoint slides and me-too business models. They are inventing around algorithms, data structures, nano technology and the like. This is the entrepreneurial granularity we need to convey to the Black Web 2.0 generation and celebrate. Best wishes!

I never get what he does. I have only seen him name drop celebrities and do webcast via Twitter. Nothing notable or agency worthy. But, I am excited for him and will be looking to see what he does past his video/webcast and talk about his celebrity friends.
