Simple as that … I’m the community guy at Simply.ca

You know I’ve always dug the community thing. Since May I’ve been doing some freelance work, taught some classes, and started on the second edition of Create Your Own Blog, all fun things but I still wanted a full time gig. Freelancing might be fun and have a lot of freedom and flexibility, however it doesn’t offer a lot of stability.

During this freelancing time, I was lucky enough to meet up with the folks at Simply.ca—thanks to Shane Gibson—and started helping them with writing their monthly newsletters and new seminars. You know the folks at Simply? No? Well, you should. The are great people and really passionate about helping people get their most out of their Macs. Oh and by the way, they are probably the largest independent Apple retailer in BC.

Anyway, the team and I really clicked and…

I started as their new Community Coordinator last week.

I’ll be managing the standard social media stuff—Twitter, Facebook, the new blog, and even Google+—as well as getting the new website up and running, doing product reviews, helping people out with their Macs, webinars … and pretty much anything else that seems to be the community kind of thing to do.

Have a Mac question? Need an accessory? Ping me on Twitter or send me an email. Who knows, you might even be able to catch me in one of the free in-store seminars.

In the meantime, you can find me at the West Broadway store if you want to swing by. I might even buy you a coffee or let you play with the iPhone-controlled helicopter.
