Carrot Creative co-hosted the first Digital DUMBO Drinks event here last night at ReBar where the digital elite of our quaint little neighborhood mixed and mingled under the bridge, talked Java scripting and new media strategies in addition to enjoying some cocktails and Outside.in cupcakes.
I’ve been saying this for awhile that this is the “Digital District” in...
People ask a lot of questions on Twitter for research, need or just pure fun. What is your favorite food? Who is the best person to follow on Twitter? Etc.. Etc…
I noticed a post from Andrew Parker today started in Tumblr-land about discussing your first job. People were quickly writing blurbs about their entry into the workforce adding the title “Since Everyone’s Talking About Their First...

You can thank the fact that today is National Pie Day for the witty subject line. But, it’s true. Pie is more than the filling and I doubt anyone can say that they eat pie for only the dry top layer. So, where am I going with this?
I’m linking social media and pie. Yes. It’s happening. Just like a pie, you need every ingredient to make it the best that it...
We hope you’re as excited as we are for today’s inaugural.
To make the most out of today’s historic celebrations we’ve compiled a list of social media websites dedicated to the inauguration.

My fellow Interwebians. In a little over four days our country will finally experience the change we’ve all been working so hard to initiate. The members of the >carrot crew have been staunch supporters of the Obama administration since day one and can’t wait to experience the most important inauguration in modern memory.
But let’s face it, after next Tuesday we’re going to be looking for...
I just wanted to say thank you on behalf of the entire @CarrotCrew, for the positive feedback & numerous features of carrotcreative.com. We really had a blast putting together our site, and it was a great way to test out some ideas and technologies, creatively. We’ve been featured on numerous CSS sites (css WOW, cssimport, CSSclip, CSS Remix , to name a few) for inspiration to others. We’ve...
Everyone likes friends. Friends are there for you when you need them. Friends are there to talk to you, hang out with you, have good times with. Friends in the Web 2.0 world (ugh buzz word) can mean something completely different though. Friends on Facebook may mean something to one person and something completely different to another. Friends on Twitter? You have followers. You follow them back...
A big Shout-out from the Couch to Charlie O’Donnell, as he spent a day in the Carrot office last week chatting up the current NY Tech scene, what he’s up to with his company Path101 as well as some fun baseball banter. (Charlie is a Mets fan for the record as notably displayed in the photo.)
Charlie is CEO of Path101, a career discovery destination. He is also founder of nextNY, a grassroots...
The first week of the new year is always saturated with media predictions for the year ahead and this year is no different. The overall economic gloom has washed over the media in a pallid periwinkle haze of indifference. Most current rhetoric points toward desperate depression-era advertising filled with a myriad of uses for old boots and stale Wheat Thins. The WSJ published their advertising...
We’re excited here at Carrot Creative. 2009 has some big things coming up for us. (Stay tuned for them, of course we’ll let you know!)
To help get us in gear, I’ve asked the entire team to disclose their resolutions for the upcoming year.
Without further adieu…
