About
As the tagline indicates, Social Butterfly Guy is all about people. After accepting my job as the Director of Community for Blue Sky Factory in 2009, I decided it was about time I had a real (non-company) blog where I could comment on what truly gets me fired up.
**UPDATE**: On August 1, 2011, I started my own company … Waldow Social! If you’d like to learn a bit more about my “transition” from my former employer to Waldow Social, read Waldow Social: My Successful Social Media Experiment.
People.
No matter what business you are in, *people are the key. People are your employees, your customers, your prospects, your fans, and your critics. People think, engage, act, decide, fail, succeed, smile, talk, write, listen, and watch.
This blog is all about people – my observations of, interactions with, and thoughts about.
People.
I hope you enjoy the ride.
*At least until robots or aliens take over the world

Hey DJ,
After reading your blogs I instantly grew accustom to liking your viewpoints. I checked out Blue Sky Factory and it seems like a great company! Any openings in your salt lake branch??
ChelseaVose Thanks for your kind words. As it turns out, I'm not longer with Blue Sky Factory. I guess this is also a nice reminder that I need to update this page. Details here: http://socialbutterflyguy.com/2011/08/28/waldow-so...

Hey DJ,
Just wanted to introduce myself and say hello. Came across your name on Chris' blog. I think every community/social media manager should have a personal blog. Just subscribed to yours.
Cheers,
Srini
Srini: I agree. That's actually why I started this blog. Ha! Thanks for subscribing...

Since we hadn't officially met, I wasn't going to say this as my first
comment on your blog, but you might appreciate this :). I think putting when
the person in charge of social media at a companyd doesn't have their own
blog, it's kind of like putting a fry chef in charge brain surgery.
It will definitely be robots. Not aliens.
Good call Eric. My bad. Robots.

@auburn - word on the street is that you are Mike's mom. You raised a solid guy. Bummed that I no longer "officially" work with him, but we still talk quite a bit. Nice logos and stuff, huh?

Mike has 50% of my genes. I thought he worked in flip flops! Within a millisecond of leaving upstate NY winters, he threw away the snow shovel and never wore shoes again.
Many, many congrats to you!
