Niv Calderon’s Experience

Social Media Consultant
Self Employed (Self-employed)

(Self-Employed; Writing and Editing industry)

November 2008 — Present (1 year 1 month)

I consult companies and brands about their social web strategy.

During December 2008 and January 2009, During the Israeli Operation in Gaza to stop Qassam and Grad rockets from falling in Israel, I was a part of a big team (constructed some of it myself), we ran a social media war room in IDC Herzliya for the state of Israel.

It has been a great honor for me to be one of the leaders of this operation, for the first time in the history of the web, to take part in a task force which goal was to make ISRAEL be present online, all over the web, to use whatever is available against all who talk and act against Israel.

In the recent year I have led the research, characterization and GUI design of two products for the startup WiserCodes. In the first product, a system that gives you top SEO content for your site and business intelligence, I was in charge of market analysis and trends, system characterization and GUI design from day one. In the other system, an original idea for a social network, I am in charge of market and trends analysis, complete system characterization and design, and business networking strategy.
