Social Media Blog: Conversational MarketingA blog that disects conversational marketing via social media.

Hi. Michael Brito here. It’s estimated that I am roughly 34 years of age or so and I currently reside in Silicon Valley. Former Marine and proud of it; online gamer, b-baller, Lakers and Niners fan, part geek - part cool cat, social networker, ENFJ, woo, and love the spotlight. To the left are my two little princesses (Milan and Savannah) and I; and thankfully, they inherited my wife’s good looks.

For the sake of not sounding too cliché in this about section, I’ll refrain from writing too much about myself. Instead, I’ll write about what most others think and/or already know about me. I am a pretty awesome guy/daddy/husband/friend and I am very passionate about Social Media. That seems to be the general consensus around here and I’m not going to disagree with any of my friends and acquaintances. : )

I have worked for companies like Sony Electronics, Comcast and Hewlett Packard. At HP, I managed a multi-million dollar search marketing budget; and was responsible for paid search, SEO and social media marketing. I spent over a year at Yahoo! as a Sr. Manager of Communities and Social Networking. I was laid off from Yahoo! last November (2007) when they consolidated the resources (marketing, engineering, product) with Bix and Yahoo! Groups. I was fortunate to land on my feet and was hired at Intel managing their consumer social media; and I love what I am doing. I also the founder of Conversations Matter; a collaborative social media blog authored by several corporate marketers from fortune 500 companies like Intel, HP, Yahoo, Cadence and Cisco.

I love to connect with others so please add me to Facebook, Linkedin, FriendFeed and Twitter or wherever else you may have a profile.

Regards,
Michael Brito
