Interested in projects that improve the way we discover and share things on the web and beyond. Search engines, text mining, tags, blogs, feeds, wikis, and social networks all play a role but my ultimate goal is to push technology into the background and create a "suggestion engine" that can do this for you in a way that is both intuitive and transparent.
My background is in Product/Program management but I'm also in my element building partnerships between companies. Deep background in Asia, especially Japan.
