My Week O'Firsts

Hello everybody, I’m Nathaniel – and I’m new to the Rypple team.  I recently graduated from Queens University in Kingston, Ontario, and I’m here to help the growing Rypple community.

This means a few things.  First, I’m going to be talking with our users and fans on all sorts of social media.  I’ll spend my time listening carefully to what you – the community – want to get out of Rypple and how we can improve.  And, I’ll be facilitating some useful online discussion about topics near to our hearts: feedback.  We’ll bring in experts, of course, but we really want to engage you – our users – in a dialog about feedback.  One of my first projects is working with Jay Goldman on Rypple Facebook community.  We’ll be launching this soon – and I’ll blog more about it later.

For now, I’m really excited to learn from everyone here at Rypple.  The people are super-smart and its seems they all have something to teach me.  I’m eager to help out everywhere and anywhere I can.  This is a whole new experience for me, so I’ve named this week:  My Week O’ Firsts!  For example:

• I started my first post-university job,
• I moved to a new city (Toronto),
• This is, in fact, my first blog.

With the Week O’ Firsts in mind – where better to start than at Rypple, a company dedicated to helping people to get the useful and specific feedback?  At the end of my first week I plan to Rypple the team to find out how I’m doing and what I can improve on.  After all, a little feedback goes a long way!  I’ll blog a bit about my first experiences – and hopefully you can let me know if yours was similar.

If you’d like to get in touch with me about any subject, feel free to leave a comment on this post and I’ll get back to you!
