Bowen Dwelle’s Summary
I founded AdMonsters -- http://admonsters.org/ -- in 1999 as a professional forum dedicated to online advertising operations and technology. With more than 400 members worldwide, AdMonsters membership includes virtually all of the top-tier online media publishers in the U.S, and many in Europe. Our bi-annual conferences are considered essential by professionals in the field. AdMonsters is going strong and continues to expand our suite of offerings in the field of online ad operations - check out our training program: http://admonsters.org/tr/
In 2005, I co-founded a company focused on *personalization without registration* and delivering on the promise of the one-to-one web. PrefPass http://prefpass.com/ launched at DEMO Fall 2006 and is now in public beta, with a v2 release coming soon.
In 2007, I co-founded another company, CreditCovers, which produces and markets CreditCovers™, a unique, patent pending consumer product. CreditCovers™ are "skins" for your credit, debit, ATM and other bank cards. Check 'em out at http://creditcovers.com/
I have also worked extensively as an independent consultant, primarily in the areas of online advertising technology and operations, technology and product strategy, and system and application architecture.
From 1998 until late 2001, I was Director of Advertising Technology for The Lycos Network and Senior Director for Technology Strategy for Terra Lycos. From 1996 to 1998, I was Director of Engineering for Wired Digital, leading the development of HotBot, at the time the highest-rated search engine on the Internet three years running. I began my career in software as a software developer, project manager, and application architect at Compuware in 1995.
