Most people that work at the Derby Festival office (including my husband) are either counting days to Thunder (11 days away) or Derby (25 days away), but around CurrentMarketing, we count down the days to April 28th. You may ask: “What is April 28th?” To some, it is the day of the Run for the […]

We have a metric pantload of new CurrentMarketing rank and file in our shop and it only makes sense to start showing them off to our followers. First up is Lindsay Trombatore, the unflappable bassist in the rock band that is the media department. Yeah, we have groupies. You know you love us, Jimmy D.

I had a great time at SXSW:Interactive 2009 and I think going back next year is a definite. I’m no party goer like some of my other Louisville comrades, but I did get to meet a lot of people and get a great pulse on where all things interactive and social media-esque are going. I

It may just be that I was tired. It may just be that I was upset with commercials getting in the way of an exciting 4th quarter (that was awesome wasn’t it?). Or it may just be that I’m spot on, and the 4th quarter commercials seemed to have almost nothing redeeming about them. Did
