Dr. Mark Drapeau’s Mashable Article About Twitter

Dr. Mark Drapeau

I’ve been trying to step away from what many call “The Scene” in Georgetown to broaden my horizons. I’ve actually been to some out of the way places like U Street, and have enjoying meeting new, interesting, and intelligent people. One of these is Dr. Mark Drapeau. You may remember Dr. Drapeau as the man I may or may not have gone out on a date with who put me on one of the geekiest lists I’ve ever been on.  He has been highlighted in Washingtonian magazine’s Dating Diaries series. I give him a lot of credit for agreeing to take part in this. I know first hand that you develop thick skin by putting yourself out there and withstanding the snarky comments and all the haters.

Professionally, Mark is an Associate Research Fellow directing the Social Software for Security project at the Center for Technology and National Security Policy of the National Defense University in Washington, DC. He wrote a very interesting article about Twitter for Mashable, the world’s largest blog focused exclusively on Web 2.0 and Social Networking news. I know some people think I just give Dating & Relationship advice, but that’s just one facet. AskMissA is my advice, recommendations and views, and in my view Mark’s article and Web 2.0 is extremely important and fascinating. I hope you enjoy!
