Joining the Intel Insiders Program
September 18th, 2009
Today, I’m very excited to announce that I’ve joined the Intel Insiders program. The Intel Insiders are a group of individuals that work with Intel, and represent Intel at events, trade shows, check out new products, and help the company. For those who don’t know what Intel is, or does, Intel is best known for producing the microprocessors found in many personal computers. The company also makes a range of other hardware including network cards, motherboards, and graphics chips.
Intel created the first commercial microprocessor chip in 1971, but it was not until the success of the personal computer that microprocessors became their primary business. In the 1980’s they were an early developer of SRAM and DRAM memory chip, and during the 1990s they invested heavily in new microprocessor designs and in fostering the rapid growth of the PC industry.
I’ll be joining Erin Kane, Corvida Raven, Mia Kim, Steve “Chippy” Paine, Brian Solis, Tom Foremski, Cathy Brooks, Frank Gruber, JD Lasica and iJustine.
If you’re in San Francisco on September 21, join me at the MobilityMeetup (use the code IDF09Media) where some of the Insiders and myself will be hosting a tweetup. Thanks to Intel for the opportunity, and I’ll see you on the 21st!
