Did anyone notice I was gone?

anyone?...anyone? Well, for the few who frequent this site, I am back after a long hiatus from the blogosphere! A big thanks Gwen Coyne and Bianca Botello for helping me get back on track. I am now fully committed to keeping this as up to date as a full time, working mom of a 4 year old and a 2 year old possibly can! This was a really active week for the Emerging Marketing team. Heidi Dailey and Jenn Winger attended SXSW (South by Southwest) in Austin and did an amazing job executing various social media. They YouTube'd , Twittered , Facebooked and Blogged to their hearts' content. Check it out and you will see why the Village Voice started to track their activities! I also had some awesome conversations with university students at the Marketing Network event on Tuesday night. Met some really enthusiastic and bright graduate students who were interested in starting a marketing career at Sun. It made me think back to when I was hired straight from graduate school into Sun in 1996. I thought I would get 2 yrs experience under my belt at a large company and then move on to a start-up (it was the beginning of the "dotcom" era, so who could blame me?). 12 years later, I am still here and just as excited to be at Sun as I was during my first interview. I am hoping I will see some of those eager faces around Sun campus in the near future and that they too, will reach that 5, 10 or 15 year milestone with optimism!
