I am in NY now at AdAge Digital. I speak tomorrow about Chalkbot Picture 6and Gutter Tech. So far, nothing great to report. Twitter’s COO announced their ad platform (I won’t share my opinion here). The best part is Heather and I met Jason Fried of 37 Signals. We got to talk briefly. Personally, I have a lot of respect for 37 Signals and I think Deeplocal shares a lot in common with the company. I don’t have much to report other than Jason got one of the first copies of a really nice booklet that Chloe designed in the office. Again, Deeplocal takes the DIY approach to marketing! So even at AdAge DIgital, where we are the smallest company presenting, we can make a splash with our nifty little red books!. Thanks Deeplocal for holding down the fort. I’ll be back in Pittsburgh soon! We also bumped into Nick Parish of Contagious Magazine yesterday which was a lot of fun! In other news… TheMotherhood.com (which we just relaunched) is up for a Webby Award! Please vote for TheMotherhood here.

Dimitry and Lindsey have been working hard with our partnPicture 1ers TheMotherhood.com to relaunch their site yesterday! We don’t produce a lot of straight websites here but TheMotherhood has been much more than a site, they are really two great moms themselves building a business around what they love. We like to be able to help when we can. Dimitry really owned this project (and I mean that in the best sense). It makes me want to reiterate to all start-ups that the people you are working with and depending on matter so much more than technology or markets. Dimitry was a true entrepreneur on this one from making design decisions, keeping the client informed, and delivering within timelines. Great job. Go check out TheMotherhood.com and leave a note about the new site for Emily and Cooper. TheMotherhood is a split-city effort by the way. Emily is in NYC and Cooper is here in Pittsburgh. Yea for Pittsburgh!

Tim White and hisphoto(6) wife Susan had a baby today. It’s the first ever Deeplocal baby! This is a major step for the office. Welcome to the world Clare Elizabeth.
