About Julien

View Julien Smith's profile on LinkedIn

I am a 29 year old entrepreneur, author, and traveler. I live in Montréal Canada.

I started podcasting and blogging in 2004, and quickly became one of the first professional podcasters in the world. I have done broadcast and satellite radio in Canada, the United States, and Germany as well as professional voice recording for numerous commercial radio and web projects, such as Guy Kawasaki’s Alltop videos.

I am co-author of the upcoming Trust Agents: Using the Web to Build Influence, Improve Reputation, and Earn Trust, published by John Wiley & Sons and written with Chris Brogan. It will be released in August of 2009. I’m also a frequent speaker on social media and search marketing.

My work has been written up in Hour magazine, La Presse, the Montreal Gazette, the CBC, and many other national and international publications.

My expertise with social media has allowed me to aid a variety of companies, organizations, and non-profits to develop forward thinking solutions to traditional marketing problems. Feel free to contact me for speaking or consulting.

    Yo man…. great show… but you ever think about adding some time to it so you can play more music. I love the show but wish there was more time for music. I have very similar taste in Hip-Hop that you do… lets hear some more tunes

    Julien: I was one of your fellow Test the Nation bloggers.

    Because I’m a big nerd, I have it in my head to collect the scores of any bloggers brave enough to share them in one place.

    If you’re willing, send me an email with your score (once you receive it), the URL you want me to link to, and a brief comment or something similar, if you like. If you want to send in your score anonymously, I’ll post that too.

    If you want, I’ll let you know when I start receiving scores, and I’ll dump them all in a single post on wiredcola (aka globadom.com; I have a weakness for dumb urls).
