Alistair Croll’s Summary
I am a technology marketing entrepreneur and writer, with a background in Internet technologies, product management and the web.
- For Rednod, a startup accelerator, I work early-stage startups, some of whom are still in stealth, on industry research, product design, and marketing communications.
- I'm principal analyst for Bitcurrent, a technology research firm. Bitcurrent also produces the Bitnorth event, a camp-format conference on technology and society.
- For O'Reilly, I co-authored Complete Web Monitoring with Sean Power. The book, outlined at www.watchingwebsites.com, looks at a comprehensive strategy for monitoring all of the websites that drive your business. In support of the book, Sean and I are presenting at several conferences including Web2Expo, eMetrics, Enterprise 2.0,Velocity, and various Podcamps and Democamps.
- I am also a contributor for technology blogs GigaOm and Earth2Tech, and author of GigaOm's recent briefing on cloud computing.
- Finally, I coordinate a variety of industry events and sessions such as CMP's Interop, Enterprise Cloud Summit, Unconference, and Enterprise 2.0; O'Reilly's Web2Expo and Velocity; and GigaOm's Structure.
I co-founded Coradiant, an early pioneer in User Experience Management which began as a Managed Service Provider. At Coradiant, I managed product strategy, engineering, and marketing, and worked closely with field sales on enterprise accounts.
Coradiant grew from Networkshop, a company I founded with Eric Packman (a longtime friend and co-conspirator) in 1997. I've also worked for 3Com Corporation, Primary Access, and Eicon Technology.
I am the author of "Managing Bandwidth: Deploying QOS Across Enterprise Networks (Prentice Hall PTR, 1999)" and graduated from Dalhousie University with a B.Com (Honours) in Strategic Marketing.
