Segment Two- A Windows Guy in the House– Chris
Pirillo, The Lockergnome and Gnomedex Experience
Tonight we will have a conversation with Chris
Pirillo, of Lockergnome and Tech TV fame.
Chris may be known as a Windows guy, but we like to think of
Chris as one of a core group of true Internet Mavens. Chris’s
specialty is a mastery over “opt-in” email lists.
As an online technology content provider, Chris has created
content is different from your run-of-the-mill Web site. His
audience has been groomed to be extremely active, sending his Web
server logs spinning out of control. Chris’s goal has always been
to feature the best of the best, for his market segment. Although
best know as a windows user resourse, Lockergone has grown to
include an e-mail newsletter network with nine separate titles
including;
- Windows Daily: 132,000 Subscribers
- Apple Core: 6,000 Subscribers
- Tech Specialist: 59,000 Subscribers
- Webmaster Weekly: 23,000 Subscribers
- Digital Media: 50,000 Subscribers
- Exclusive Focus: 12,000 Subscribers
- Penguin Shell: 16,000 Subscribers
- Windows Digest: 146,000 Subscribers
- Bits and Bytes: 33,000 Subscribers.
Today Lockergnome has over 8.5 million unique impressions per
month.
On July 25th and 26th – Gnomedex, the convention designed for
those who want to learn how technology can be used to improve their
businesses, their careers, and their lives kicks off. Gnomedex 3.0
attendees include a wide range of backgrounds including IT
professionals, business owners/managers, and enthusiasts from all
over the world.
Speakers include: John C. Dvorak, Tim O’Reilly, Jim Louderback,
and Slashdot’s Rob Malda. Sponsors include: four Microsoft
divisions, Google, Zone Labs, and NVIDIA. Iowa partners include:
CrossPaths.net, i-Spot Access, and the Greater Des Moines
Partnership. Estimated attendance for 2003: 1,000.
This isn’t a convention where you get lost in the hallways; it’s
a conference where you get lost in the conversations. Wither the
walls that keep us from connecting with new folks and old friends;
you’ve entered a live chat room, ready to listen to stories and
solutions that continue to make the Web spin. Scheduled
presentations will keep you captivated, and surrounding peers will
keep you motivated.
Chris Pirillo is a best-selling author and creator of the
award-winning Lockergnome e-zine, has found the answer to
harnessing the complete potential of technology. Profiled by such
publications as The New York Times, Fortune, and Inc. Magazine,
Pirillo has made the corporate and electronic elite stand up and
take notice with the technical tips and trends contained in his
Lockergnome newsletters. With no marketing budget, Pirillo
attracted over 350,000 confirmed subscribers, including some of
Silicon Valley’s highest profile innovators – and found advertisers
in thought leaders, including Google and Microsoft.
In addition, Chris is a foremost commentator on the newest
innovations that are expanding the limits of technology and our
imaginations. For a year, he hosted a weekly “technology” show on
AM 1040 WHO, Iowa’s premier talk radio station on the Clear Channel
Communications Network. With 50,000 watts of pure Pirillo presence,
he kept listeners infotained with local and national guests. His
shows were recorded live and archived on the Web for international
coverage. He moved on to host a daily television show in San
Francisco; with his guidance, TechTV’s Call for Help survived three
layoffs.
Chris is now co-authoring a book with John C. Dvorak. “Online!”
will be published by Prentice-Hall in October (2003). His personal
online journal (Weblog) pulls in an active audience as he continues
to create successes that work in conjunction with the evolving
Lockergnome brand. He speaks to professional organizations large
and small, in person or via the Internet, and his media career is
about to go into overdrive. If people haven’t heard of Chris
Pirillo before now – they will soon.
