I’m here in Sunny California, at the beautiful Marriott Desert Springs Resort where the DEMO conference is being held this year. Yup, Standout Jobs was selected to present at DEMO!
It’s been a long journey for Standout Jobs, and this week marks a major milestone–Standout Jobs has launched our first product, Reception, at DEMO 08. We waited till exactly 7am EST on Monday January 28th, which is when the embargo is lifted according to DEMO rules, to launch the product. The reception (pun intended) has been amazing, we were covered by TechCrunch, GigaOM and Mashable, among the major news sites, as well as local sites such as A frog in the valley, I never nu, Web1979, MontrealTechWatch, TechCFO, Mikel.org, Guillaume Thoreau, and Quebec Valley.
(If you’re interested in all the details, you can of course consult the
Standout Jobs Blog.)
Most of my readers probably also read the likes of my cofounders Ben Yoskovitz and Austin Hill, so all this news is no surprise to you… But I do want to remind you that we will be presenting at 12:44PM EST LIVE on the web at demo.com, and this is where you’ll be able to finally see just exactly why I’ve been so reclusive over the last year! ;-) But to be completely serious for a second, we’d love to have your virtual moral support.
I’d like to also give big props to the Standout Jobs A-Team that made this happen–In alphabetical order:
- Marc Andre Cournoyer
- Natasha Duchene
- Daniel Haran
- Gary Haran
- Austin Hill
- Thanh Vinh Tang
- Alain Wong
- Francis Wu
- Ben Yoskovitz
Thank you for your hard work everyone. We’ll celebrate when I get back!
