Brady Forrest

Brady Forrest

Hello From The New Guy

I'm Brady Forrest, the new guy at O'Reilly Radar. My first task is working with Nat to Co-Chair Where 2.0. My first appearance will be at next week's SDForum's Search SIG on Mapping. Come on by Tuesday night as I discuss the state of Mapping with Google, Yahoo!, Microsoft and Ask. It'll be great to meet you.

I used to work on Live Search where I was one of the organizers of the Search Champs program among other things. I came over to MS with the acquisition of MongoMusic (which became MSN Music). Previous to my forays on the Internet I worked in the Supply Chain Management industry.

I live in Seattle and when I'm not building cars for Burning man or filming Angel parodies, I hike and devilstick.

Hi Brady,
Good to see your safe arrival, the Burning Man stuff looks cool - as for the devilsticks - now I know why you had red hair on V2 - got too close to the flames :-)
take it easy
Matt

Congrats, Brady!

Yay Brady! I'm really happy you're here (although I appreciated all you did for the Search Champs). Given what I know of both you and the O'Reilly gang, this seems like a happy match.

Congratulations.

Nice move Brady - congrats. Buzz mentioned to me the other day that you were joining O'Reilly. Smart move on their part and a big loss for the Live Search team IMO. The Search Champs events were always a blast and you were a big reason why.

Do great things and keep having fun.

Hey Brady

Congrats, and welcome aboard.

Brady, Glad you're here. The SDForum event looks very interesting. I'm looking forward to it!

Brady, welcome to your new home. I am really looking forward to what you will do here (I loved what you did with Search Champs) and can only imagine what will bubble up here.

Hey Brady,

Nice to see you set up in your new digs already. Looking forward to seeing all the great things you'll be involved in.

Best of luck!

Best,

Dion Hinchcliffe
