Since I am doing my group project on Slideshare, I have taken some time to try to learn a bit more about the company. There are 3 main people that I would say are “in charge” of Slideshare… They are:
Jonathan Boutelle – he is the founder of Slideshare, he is listed on their site as the “head geek”. I think he would be the most interesting person to interview or talk to based on reviews about him on other websites. He also has his own website that I intend on looking over more closely: http://www.jonathanboutelle.com/
Rashmi Sinha – the CEO of the company. She seems more like she is in charge of building the community support around Slideshare. She seems to be the face of the company for marketing and whatnot. She would be interesting to interview for a number of reasons. She went to Brown and seems highly intelligent (as should most Web 2.0 developers). Also, I really like that there’s a girl “on the team”. Her website is: http://rashmisinha.com/ <– notice she twitters
Amit Ranjan – he heads the “team”, which to me says that he’s the one actually building the website. I think he would be interesting to talk to because he has a lot of first hand experience in dealing with the coding and problem solving associated with creating a successful website. His website is: http://www.amitranjan.com/
