About
Brad Grier is a communications evangelist, writer, blogger, photographer, and technology aficionado. That’s me to the right.
What it’s all about:
This is my personal blog. In it you’ll find reviews, rants, and documentation of my exploits in technology and communication. I also fancy myself a bit of a photographer so you may see the odd photo or photography post.
Background:
My first involvement in the online world started in the latter part of the 20th century (the ’80s) with involvement with the local Apple & Amiga communities and Bulletin Board Systems.
In the ’90s, I brought the Internet to broadcast television by building and operating the first website for a regional TV station in western Canada (CITV Edmonton now Global TV Edmonton).
In this century, I’ve been focusing on community media and community development, working with leading video games developers, creating an industry standard model for online communities.
For more detail about me and my work, check out my profile on LinkedIn, or ping me directly.
History:
Older versions of my blogs can be found in Archive.org’s archive for bradblog.info and bradblog.homeip.net . Perusing it’s content, you’ll find post, stories, articles, reviews and even poetry — yes really.
Currently, and aside from this blog, you can find me:
- on Twitter
- contributing to OneDegree.ca
- contributing to a yet unlaunched super-secret blog (stay tuned)
Some of the work here was written under contract to various publications or agencies, other items were written for the fun of it.
I occasionally receives items to review and give opinion upon, good, bad or somewhere in the middle.
Comments may be edited, moderated or deleted without notice. Obviously this would not occur unless the comment was deemed spam, defamatory, or in poor taste (yes, I’m the arbiter of that one). If you’re linking back to a service in your URL, please disclose your relationship to the service in the post or it just looks like comment spam (and the link will be removed).
