SheGeeks

Corvida is the proof that age doesn’t imply excellence. She’s regularly quoted on Mashable, friendly with everyone “in the know,” and is one of the guiding voices on social media. She was also recently added to the ReadWriteWeb writing team.

Hard to believe that (what seems to be) her first SheGeeks post was only tangentially related to Web 2.0, posted a little over 2 years ago. She makes mention of her soon-to-be-niche, but instead riffs on Machiavellianism, Photobucket, and age.

Pretty good first post. Not stellar, but it’s personal, educational, has a small prediction, and is definitely from a unique voice. Check it out.

Six Pixels of Separation

Mitch Joel is a well-known name in both the Canadian and the international marketing scene. His knowledge of and insight about the uses of social media is among the best on the web.

His first post isn’t great, but it’s not terrible, either. An apology of the failings of his old blog, and a promise of new things to come, all short and sweet. I’d give it a Bad-plus: you don’t know what’s coming and you don’t know who Mitch is… but he’s being concise and honest about it.

As a bonus, I’m giving you the link to his first post on his old blog, Multimarketing, as well. It’s more of a sales pitch than anything, but it establishes the fact that he’s a well-read thinker.
