This is my blog and lifestream of online media matters and interests. New developments in emergent media, user experience, design, and community are some areas I’m interested in.
I’m a web consultant in Toronto who helps organizations and professionals use the Internet to connect with and engage their communities. Please contact me for inquiries and see my LinkedIn for work background. I do a number of things such as redesigning web sites to make them more effective to competitive analysis reports. I manage client needs in consultation with other colleagues.
The following page mashups are updated automatically from my activity on the Internet: links I like, events I may attend, presentations, business videos I like/shot, twitter conversations, a bookshelf, photo blog, music, travels near and far, and my social graph.
There are at least four other Matthew Burpee’s in North America so just in case I’m the one in the photo at top left.
It’s always nice to hear from someone who has visited here, so feel free to connect online by email or via the social network icons at top right. Suggestions are welcome too; the best ideas are not always obvious.
Visual data-mining can be fun. Above are some of my social networks using Touchgraph.
This site was built on lamp, wordpress, plainscape and several plugins. Please note that occasionally time constraints may prevent my posting a recent event or topic here or in my social media tools integrated into this blog.
