Reaching out through the media

Published by Eric Litman on Wednesday, April 9th, 2008 10:00pm

March/April have been busy months, and in the midst, I’ve spoken with some really cool folks in various segments of media. Here’s a cross-section:^†

Washington Post: “Building his own startup ecosystem”
CNET’s News.com: “Escape from social network frenzy?”
Fast Company: Lynne D Johnson reports from Eric Litman’s talk at NextNY Web 2.0

CNET’s the404: “The ‘Where I can’t Stop Laughing’ Episode“
NextNY Web 2.0: Eric Litman speaking at Web 2.0 Meetup in NYC: (part 1) (part 2)
Jonny’s Partay: Eric Litman on Jonny’s Partay
PulverTV/Mediacasters.tv: Eric Litman visits Startup Weekend Boulder

Thanks so much to Zach Goldfarb at The Washington Post, Caroline McCarthy at CNET’s The Social, and Lynne Johnson at Fast Company for the mentions, and for Jonny Goldstein, Jeff Pulver and Laura Fitton, and, of course, the awesome Wilson Tang, Randall Bennett, and Jeff Bakalar of the404 for having me on their shows!

^† Yep, you guessed it. This is the blogging equivalent of a TV clip show. Regular blogging to resume shortly.

Glad to be mentioned among such illustrious company. I’m curious, what are some of the benefits you have seen from getting this media coverage, either tangible, or intangible?

Building awareness around WashingtonVC helps us grow our network of entrepreneurs, improves access to great deals, and strengthens our ability to help drive high-level opportunities for our portfolio companies.

Additionally, I’m a big fan and supporter of the local, DC tech community, and like to use media channels to showcase the innovation and great people in the area.

Speaking of…we promised to come back and do another show with you. Let’s plan it soon!
